Kitchen Stove
Smith & Anthony Stove Co.
Boston, 1884
2004.68
This cast iron, coal-burning stove, installed in 1884, likely remained in use well into the 20th century. The stove, with its five burners, would have been kept on all day long for cooking and for heating water to be used throughout the house. One of the five surfaces on the stove is occupied by a waffle iron—a good example of the kinds of culinary gadgets that were so well-loved in the Victorian era.
