Washing the fire

Previous winter I bought this lovely fireplace on the flea-market in Brussels. I had to clean and wash the contraption thoroughly before putting it to use.  It's pseudo woodlogs are illuminated by one lamp. The heat of this 40watt bulb is enough for a small rotor to turn. This creates a convincing 'fireplace' effect only if you apply some imagination into the experience. It' portable , it's fun, you can actually hang it on a wall.

These electric fireplaces are UK fabricated.Check www.     They are still being made.
