Speckled enamel cook stoves...

Are these rare in the antique world? Do they command higher prices than other enamel stoves? Does anyone have pics or links to any? Thank you.



I have been trying to buy a green speckled stove from a lady for 3 years now, and before I make a big offer I want to research such a stove. They are smashing to look at, but I'm not gonna trade my cow herd for a stove! This old stoves is in near mint condition!

I have no idea what it is worth. But, if you have been trying to buy it for three years apparently you have not offered a price that is very tempting. If you want it make an offer she cannot refuse. If she does refuse I would forget it and move on. There is always something else you might like. That's what I would do. But do keep the cows!

look low on the page here... http://oldecountry.sr4.org/site/31

Dunno If what you are looking for is gas or wood, just searching for matches.

I'd find a similar new stove, and paint it. Speckling can't be too hard.
