The Contura 586 Style wood burning stove is a 5 kW pillar mounted model designed to lift the fire visually within the room and create a more distinctly modern focal point. With clean lines, integrated cool touch handles, and the option of a turntable, it is well suited to interiors where the stove is expected to contribute as much to the overall design as it does to the heating.
Mounting the stove on a pillar changes the proportions and presence of the appliance, giving the fire a more elevated position and a lighter overall feel than a lower set model. This makes it especially effective in modern rooms where the stove is intended to stand out architecturally. The cast iron door provides the structural stability needed to handle repeated temperature variation, while the integrated handles keep the front cleaner in appearance and remain cool during use. If specified with the turntable, the stove can be rotated so that the light and heat from the fire can be enjoyed from different angles, which adds real value in open plan layouts or spaces with multiple seating positions.
This model also includes a strong range of practical performance features. The Automatic Start Function controls lighting air through the grate, allowing the stove to be lit with the door shut. The Refuelling Boost Function helps revive embers that are nearly spent by introducing oxygen from below, making it easier for fresh logs to catch. The Clean Burning system uses preheated combustion air supplied from the rear to support efficient burning over longer periods with low particle concentrations. The Silent Sliding Ashtray makes maintenance smoother and quieter, while the single control allows simple and precise combustion regulation.
Available in black or grey, the stove can also be specified with a painted aluminium top, glass top, or soapstone top, giving more flexibility in how the final design is finished. With 80% efficiency, a maximum heating area of 120 m², and chimney connection from above or behind, it is built to combine compact dimensions with practical heating performance.

Expert Insight:
A pillar mounted stove changes the visual balance of the room by raising the fire and reducing the sense of bulk at floor level. In open plan spaces, the option of a turntable can also make a meaningful difference, as it allows both the heat and the flame view to be directed more effectively towards different parts of the room.
Suitability:
This model is well suited to contemporary living rooms, open plan spaces, and design led interiors where the stove is intended to act as a stronger focal feature. It is a particularly good choice for homeowners who want a modern freestanding stove with a more elevated fire view.
Installation / Technical Notes:
The stove can be connected from above or behind, which helps when planning different flue routes. Listed accessories include fan, floor protection, hotplate, and turntable.
