Get the Swedish look

Sweden is the birthplace for many successful innovative companies from H & M and IKEA to Spotify and Skype.  Their forward-thinking culture fosters innovation, yet their traditional qualities of functional, simple design still hold strong.  Interest in Scandinavian design has grown due to a new wave of creative energy from young Nordic designers.   Contura, a leading Swedish stove manufacturer, embraces the UK’s demand for aesthetic appeal and functional performance.  Kernow Fires is at the forefront of delivering this product to the Cornish marketplace and we see the benefit of such cleverly engineered and beautifully designed fires. ‘We are lovers of Scandinavian design. The clean lines and simple design perfectly complement our modern Cornish homes.’ says Simon Breckon, owner at Kernow Fires, who has installed a growing number of Contura stoves across Cornwall and explains ‘ You can’t help but appreciate the combination of craftsmanship and affordability.’

Appreciation for the brand has increased dramatically, with a recent post of a customer’s cat enjoying a sleep in front of their fire reaching an audience of over 70,000 people.  Jemma from Rock said ‘Freddie loves his fire and we couldn’t be happier.  We love the modern look of it and are amazed at how much heat it produces.’  You can see Freddie enjoying his Contura at Facebook.com /KernowFires

Contura Fires are perfect for homes where wood and combustible materials make up part of the design or build, with the distance between the back of the stove and a wood wall as little as 10cm on some stoves.

Already well connected with the Swedish brand, Kernow Fires is taking things a step further by installing a specifically designed Contura area within their newly designed showroom on Trenant Industrial Estate in Wadebridge.  For more information on Contura and other brands available from Kernow Fires click here or pop into one of our showrooms in Wadebridge or Redruth.
