The Wanders Black Sapphire log store wood burning stove is an 8kW contemporary stove with a distinctive angled body, deep bowed glass and integrated log storage beneath the firebox. With 78% efficiency and an A energy label, it combines efficient wood-burning performance with a sculptural freestanding design.
The Black Sapphire takes its design inspiration from a sapphire gemstone, using angles, edges and a kinked side profile to create a stove with a striking architectural shape. The glass follows this angled form, creating a deep curved viewing window that gives the fire a more three-dimensional appearance than a standard flat-fronted appliance.
The log store version raises the stove and adds practical firewood storage below, giving the appliance a taller and more complete freestanding presence. This makes it well suited to contemporary rooms where the stove is intended to be both a heat source and a visible design feature.
A key design detail is the integrated handle, positioned in the bottom right-hand corner of the door. This keeps the front of the stove clean and uninterrupted, avoiding a protruding handle that would break the sleek appearance. The handle slides forward to unlock the door, keeping operation simple while preserving the minimalist look.
The stove is supplied with a catalytic converter for cleaner combustion. This helps reduce pollutants in the exhaust gases, which is especially useful on a wood burning stove with a large glass area. For customers wanting a modern stove with strong visual impact, integrated log storage and cleaner-burning technology, the Black Sapphire log store version offers a strong balance of design and practicality.
