Description
Looking for a fireplace with a shape that stands out? The Godin Silinda is a cylindrical cast iron wood fireplace that looks good from every angle. Round stoves throw heat out evenly in all directions, so the Silinda works well in the middle of a room or in a corner where a square box would look awkward.
Godin Silinda Features
A cylinder wood fireplace that heats all round
The round body radiates warmth across the room rather than just straight ahead. That helps spread heat evenly through a lounge and gives the stove a soft, sculptural look.
Cast iron for lasting warmth
At around 110 kg, the Silinda carries plenty of cast iron. It warms up steadily, holds heat well and keeps the room comfortable as the fire burns down, which means fewer logs over an evening.
7kW of steady heat
A 7kW fireplace is a sweet spot for many South African homes. It handles a cold Cape night in a family lounge without making the room uncomfortably hot.
Tall, compact footprint
The Silinda measures 42.5 x 45 x 102 cm. Its height gives presence while the small base keeps floor space free. It connects to a 150 mm flue, which helps it draw well and light easily.
Is the Godin Silinda right for your home?
As a rough guide, a 5 to 7kW fireplace suits a small to medium lounge of about 40 to 70 m2 with a normal ceiling. Send us your room size and photos and we will confirm the fit. You can also compare our full fireplace range or other freestanding fireplaces.

Godin Silinda FAQs
Is a round fireplace better than a square one?
Not better, just different. A round stove like the Silinda spreads heat in all directions and suits central or corner positions. A square stove sends more heat forward and fits flat against a wall.
Can I put the Silinda in the middle of the room?
Yes, if the flue can run straight up through the ceiling and roof. A central position shows off the round shape. We check the ceiling and roof structure on site first.
