Billy i got to say The range would look great in the Chateau basement kicthen ..
@franzi1710Ай бұрын
My grandmother had such a fireplace in the house. I will never forget how she explained to me how to use it. There were hooks and rods about 2 metres high. Everything that was smoked was hung on them. Then there were 2 chains above the fire, each with a pot hanging from it. When it was boiling, the pot hung very low down. To keep it warm, it was higher up. Then there were bedpans in the corner. The embers from the fire were placed in them and then these pans were taken to bed to keep warm. Wonderful...what a time.
@girlnorthof60Ай бұрын
I was trying to envision how the fireplace could be staged once the old range was removed. Your description of your grandmother's fireplace sounds beautiful, and a lovely way for Billy to utilize his excellent collection of copper. Imagine the lights casting a warm glow off the deep rich surfaces 😍

Congratulations - 500,000 subscribers 🥳🥳🥳 what an achievement. I'm so glad you mentioned putting in some downlights in the fireplace - it will look amazing. I agree with some of the other comments; the cooker would be a wonderful addition to the Chateau's basement kitchen. So proud of Yanis and his new 'baby' (library ceiling), he's doing an amazing job, Simon would be so proud - as I'm sure you are too Billy. It never ceases to amaze me with the 'band of brothers' you've managed to gather along the way - just goes to show the type of man you are. You constantly praise those around you and are only too willing to help those who've helped you along your journey - pappa Petherick has raised a good'n.

If the antique range cooker is now surplus to the upstairs kitchen you could take it downstairs to the basement kitchen Billy. M8chael could incorporate it into the design. Even better if it could be made to work.

For my 2 cents---i agree totally that the beautiful fireplace needs to be open. Spotlights perfect. Whenever you may have chefs and cooks putting on a spread, you can add for the occasion large fresh-cut flowers.

I once lived in a house with a similar fireplace. There was an iron shutter in the chimney which you could open and close. When closed it prevented dirt falling down into the room. Once in a while I opened the shutter to clean what had fallen down.
@neild2148Ай бұрын
Also shutter can be opened regularly to vent the chimney for prevention of condensation build up. The condensation can migrate through the chimney walls drawing soot sulfates to the wall surface.
@L70sАй бұрын
@neild2148 this is exactly the problem we had. What I thought was a leaky roof turned out to be condensation from having the chimney capped to tightly. It's damaged upstairs and downstairs walls. Ventilation is SO important.

Loving the idea of lighting up the inside of the fireplace. I didn’t mind the old range in the fireplace until you started putting a lot of other stuff on it. Then it started getting messy looking. If you take it away I feel you need to replace it with something. Maybe an antique fire grate and an old iron back plate. Put some pretty birch logs on the grate. ❤️😊
