Value / Information about WJ Loth’s Gem Woodstove

[David Dalton]

I purchased this item at an estate sale and it appears to be in very good condition for a 100+ old stove. Can anyone please help with the value or the best place to sell this antique stove. I was buying some tools and this was an impulse purchase.

I think it is a LOTH’s GEM Antique Cast Iron Wood Burning Stove/ Parlor Stove

History on W.J. Loth Stove Co.:
Founded by F. Percy Loth (1871-1938), William J. Loth (1844-1904)
Period of Production: 1890-1904
W.J. Loth Gem made by W.J. Loth Stove Co. Waynesboro, VA

Thank you for any help you can provide.
David

Hi David,

Sorry about the SPAM filter marking your post as junk…

I believe your antique parlor stove is worth between $750 and $1500 dollars. I based that figure on the following:

It’s a beautiful antique stove, so I can see why you impulsed bought it. As far as the best place to sell it, we offer free place to post it for sale here on AntiquesNavigator.com. Just log into AntiquesNavigator and click the advanced dash board:

On the advanced dashboard page, click the ADD PRODUCT button and fill out the form. Since it’s a stove and probably pretty expensive to ship, you might want to describe in the listing that its pick-up only or customer arranged freight (or something along those lines).
