Peter Loffler –  A heater builder Based in Hesse Germany, Peter is deeply grounded in the ancient arts of clay work.  He has sculpted many if the finest heaters I have seen.  In his words: As a stove builder but also as an artist, we always consider the whole house with its room layout, its residents and their habits. A stove as a heat generator and art object has a major impact on the entire living environment. Accepting this responsibility is always a challenge and requires everyone involved to work together. Unique items are created that have a real relationship to the house and residents.’ residents.www-lehmundfeuer-de
