Cupola Fireplace

by on Feb 10, 2010

Here’s another one of those fabulous fireplaces that cause so much kerfuffle in Curbly comments. The problem is it burns ethanol, which can be bad if you, you know, breathe oxygen. (At least that’s what commenters have told me.) The Cupola, from Vauni, appears as if it is a burning wall-mounted art piece. At 59 pounds, it weighs about as much as a 55″ flat screen TV. What I’m wondering is if something like it couldn’t be permanently mounted and plumbed into a gas line like a traditional gas fireplace? Anyone? Anyone?
