Spotlight on… Chesneys
May’s spotlight is illuminating the family traditions and resplendence of Chesneys. Synonymous with luxury, Chesneys have nearly forty years of experience in the industry and their products can be found across the globe: London, Berlin, Tokyo, and even New York boast Chesneys stockists, maintaining the brand as an international leader of luxury wood-burning stoves. The low emissions comfort that Chesneys appliances offer is sought after worldwide, with company founder Paul Chesney’s values continuing to be the central ethos of design and manufacture nearly four decades later. The Chesneys name is just as present within the company as it is within the industry; Chesneys continues to be a family-owned and run business, upholding its core values and principles of outstanding craftsmanship, intelligent engineering, and innovative design.
A small workshop and a single showroom in London wherein antique English fireplace surrounds were restored and sold is where the now globally recognised brand of Chesneys began back in 1977. To this day, Chesneys remain experts in antique fireplace surrounds. Chimneypieces from across the continent are present in their London, New York, Shanghai, and Beijing showrooms with their vast collection continuing to increase as they acquire and restore new pieces. These fireplace surrounds encapsulate the ethos, culture, and workmanship of the company. Dedicated restoration work using only traditional methods visually displays the grandeur of Chesneys, demonstrating why they are the leading brand in the luxury heating sector.
The company’s ethos and passion haven’t wavered as they have exponentially grown over the past four decades. Continuous investment in innovative product design combined with a dedicated programme of research and development has bolstered product development. By dedicating the time and expertise to their products, Chesneys have become a globally recognised brand producing efficient, low emissions appliances.
Luxury, care, and low emissions are present across all Chesneys Cleaner Choice certified appliances. Cleaner Choice certification demonstrates that an appliance meets the most stringent emission performance limits, producing at least 50% less emissions than current requirements in UK smoke control areas. Joining the Cleaner Choice scheme is voluntary, acting as a way to provide assurance that an appliance is going above and beyond current emission limits – with a focus on particulate matter emissions. Cleaner Choice certification assures that a manufacturer is both engaged with the industry and is committed to reducing emissions.
Chesneys recently committed to making the cleaner choice, adding a number of their wood burners to the existing range of Cleaner Choice certified appliances. Their wood-burning stove collections – Heritage and Contemporary – are distinguishable by their styles and aesthetics, with Cleaner Choice certified appliances appearing across both of their major collections.
Chesney’s Heritage Collection has a wood burner to fit any room. Utilising the traditional aesthetic for wood-burning stoves, the Heritage Collection includes the Salisbury, Beaumont, and Shoreditch ranges. The versatility of these stove styles combined with the implicit luxury of Chesneys forms an iconic feature in your home – all whilst maintaining high efficiency and low emissions.
The Contemporary Collection focuses on minimalism, offering a distinctly modern look for your wood-burning stove. Inspired by the notion that ‘less is more’, stoves in ranges such as the Serendipity and Sanctuary boast modest features, embracing the core visuals of what makes a Chesneys wood burner elegant. Sleek, uncluttered, and striking edges encapsulate the Contemporary Collection, offering a modern approach that still retains the traditional sophistication of a Chesneys wood-burning stove.
Technological advancements have put the company at the forefront of the industry and Chesneys have uniquely combined their artisan expertise with cutting-edge innovation to become market leaders. This has led to the most diverse portfolio of products in the luxury heating sector, making Chesneys synonymous with luxury heating. A Chesneys wood burner allows you to feel assured you are keeping warm with low emissions – without any compromise on design or luxury. Whether you are looking for a modern take on a wood burner or seeking a traditionally elegant stove, Chesneys can provide you with an appliance to suit your needs. Chesneys appliances are stocked worldwide, with over 200 authorised stockists throughout the UK, Europe, Japan, and Australasia.
