Featured 1800s(?) "Golden Grain" stove. Can't find ANY info. Please help!

Hello all,
My father is an avid antique collector, restorer, and seller. He has asked me to help him sell this stove. I am trying to find some facts about it. But I can't find ANY information about it online. Can anyone tell me anything about this piece, or the company, or anything at all about it??

Thank you for your time!

Your images are apparently private, Jon...

 

help us....to help you !

 

As Whittier has said, your pictures are set to Private so no one but you can see them. Change them to Public to the members who can help can see them.

 

Hi @Jon410, and WELCOME!! I personally find it a little difficult to find my way around in the GALLERY where images can be uploaded. So, I and MANY, others post directly to the forum they want/choose, with their cell phone OR from the computer....IF you haven't had success with the gallery, here's how to post directly:

For Future reference, when posting images:

Each image MUST be UNDER 1 MB....
There are instructions on site here on how to reduce the size of your image, if that is the problem......you are allowed up to 10 images per post!!! Here are some links to the instructions:

Try emailing them to yourself as "medium" size, they should then be under 1 MB!

If on the computer:

If on an iPhone:

And if on an Android phone:
https://www.antiquers.com/threads/using-an-android-phone-for-pics-on-antiquers.41709/

As an added note, when you have your photos LISTED, BUT BEFORE you hit POST, please click on the wording that says to "INSERT EVERY IMAGE AS FULL IMAGE" !! That way, we're not clicking on little thumbnails, but get to see all of the images full sized!! Thanks! Remember, it takes a bit for MOST new members to get the hang of it, but it's really quite simple once you get used to it!!!"

 

Thank you for the info. I have the album to "everyone". So hopefully that helps.

 

@Jon410, From what I can see/find, a Golden Grain Stove burns 'corn pellets'......I didn't see the age, but below is a link you can check out:

https://www.woodandcoal.com/cornstoves.htm

I still haven't seen an age of one.....and one site was NOT secure, so did not continue to that site......who knew....corn grain or pellets to burn!!!!
Here's another link, this company SELLS golden grain or corn grain stoves, so maybe they can be of help to you:

and one more : and 2 last links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeAvUC0K3sc and

Hoping I'm NOT way off base on these, If I am, SO SORRY!!!

 

Unfortunately, what @Aquitaine found is a modern stove with the same name. This makes doing internet searches much more difficult.

Are there any other markings/manufacturer's name on the stove? Do you have any information on where it came from (country, state)?

 

Pity the poor woman who had to slave over that beast ! Attractive though it is.

 

Cool looking thing!

 

I see there’s a large group on Facebook. Maybe also ask there

Based on what I can find, your stove would be described as a "step top", and may date from the 1860s-1870s. Check the back of the stove for any additional markings such as patent numbers, a model number, or a date.

That's a fine looking stove. The woman who cooked on it probably felt she had the latest and greatest.
