Early 1900’s Ceramic Brick Radiant Heater. Manufactured by Okeefe & Merritt. Cast iron and ceramic and a wonderful example of art-deco design. 25.5 X 8.5 X 22.5. Top portion of heater is made of ceramic and there are some chips and wear as seen in the photos. Bottom portion is cast iron. There appears to be a missing knob on front gas flow knob but turned freely by hand and threads are good for replacement. The good news is that heater has been modified to operate on LP (propane) rather than the original natural gas. LP hose and connector appears fairly new though we HAVE NOT tested with propane. Not as heavy as one would think because of partial ceramic construction. With some additional cleaning and polishing this unit would be a very attractive piece.
