Lilor 5003

A friend very kindly gave me a stove. A nicely enameled Lilor 5003

 

Excellent.

Was it found in NZ?

I can't remember if my friend got it when he was overseas or not.

 

@gnome A very nice example of a enamelled range stove, the green colour enamel is very common in French enamelled stoves, a real beauty you have there

 

Very pretty and classic French design. In that first photo is the cast trivet upside down? It looks like the other side has ribs to support the cooking vessel higher above the flame. You've placed it maker's name up, but lot of French stoves had the maker's name on the underside, rather than on show.

 

Love the cast iron grate

 

A wonderful gift, congratulations

 

According to the images of the catalogue that I found when searching Lilor stoves (probably on here) the trivet/grate goes flat side up but is reversible.

 

Aha! That makes sense, as even flat side up it looks a sensible distance from the burner.

 

Very nice man, congrats.

 

wow...thats a beaut!

 

Hi all
in fact, the cast iron grid can be mounted in the two positions
If you have a small container to heat, you can put it like in the first picture
But you will scratch the enamel over time when you will use a large container
SO, it is better to use the trivet other side in order to raise the pan and do not rub on the enamel

 

@Michel Mottled grey and nickel, very pretty!
