Description
Not every home wants a black stove, and the Dovre Classic 760 WD E8 Ivory offers a softer option. Its ivory finish suits farmhouse kitchens, older homes and light, classic interiors, while the cast iron body does the serious work of heating a large room. With up to 12kW on tap, it is made for long winter evenings.
Dovre Classic 760 Wood Fireplace Features
A finish that stands out
An ivory fireplace becomes a feature in its own right. It pairs well with wooden floors, white walls and traditional mantels, and it looks right in both country homes and renovated Cape cottages.
Cast iron heat
The 760 weighs 200 kg, and that mass of cast iron stores heat and keeps releasing it once the flames die down. You get a steady room temperature and fewer cold spots across a big space.
Wide output range
Output runs from 8.4kW to 12kW, so you can keep a gentle fire in autumn and run it hard in mid-winter. It burns wood and connects to a 150 mm flue. At 56.5 x 78 x 80 cm, it has a generous presence without being overly tall.
Is the Classic 760 right for your home?
As a rough guide, 8kW to 12kW suits a large lounge or open-plan area of about 70 to 120 m2. Very high ceilings or lots of glass will need the top of that range. Send us your room size and photos and we will confirm. Compare it with other freestanding fireplaces, or read our Dovre fireplace guide.

Dovre Classic 760 FAQs
Is an ivory finish hard to keep clean?
A light finish shows dust and ash more than black, so a quick wipe with a soft, dry cloth when the stove is cold keeps it looking good. Avoid harsh cleaners and wet cloths on a warm surface.
Can the Dovre Classic 760 heat an open-plan home?
With 8.4kW to 12kW of output, it is suited to large lounges and many open-plan spaces. Layout, insulation and ceiling height matter, so we check these with you before you buy.
