The 20th century damper tassels, which were attached to the damper chains and cords of the tiled stoves, are usually just turned, unlike the 19th century, which really looked like real tassels. We have now produced such a neat 1900s model with fine turning and attention to detail. The tassels are available in two versions, in brass for tiled stoves with brass doors and in nickel-plated brass for stoves with nickel-plated doors.

Damper tassels were a common decorative detail on tiled stoves, wall vents, etc. from the mid-19th to the early 20th century. The tassel was locked by a knot at the end of the damper chain and served both as a pull knob and decoration. Gysinge’s own production.

Tassels from the 1910s. Tassels from the turn of the 20th century are usually only turned, unlike those from the 19th century, which really resembled real tassels.

We have produced an Art Nouveau model with fine turning and care in the details. The model for this damper is from Tyskbo Bergsmanssmedja in By parish Horndal.

Untreated brass. Height 60mm.

Tiled stove clay for the renovation of tiled stoves where the firebox has weathered internally. The main reason for using clay is that it has the ability to expand and absorb and distribute the pressure generated by the heat. The properties of clay make the kiln durable and safe and prevent the tiles from bursting and leaking. Never use cement or concrete in a tiled stove as this makes renovation and removal/replacement difficult, or in some cases impossible.

Pack of 5 kg. Contains refractory clay, ready-mixed with sand (1 part clay flour and 3 parts sand). Normally sufficient for 2-3 tiled stoves. Only water needs to be added.
