Historic Detail
Patented on October 20th, 1896, the Italian Flue Ornamental predates the Plain version and continued production well into the 1910s.
The Italian Flue Ornamental shares similarities with other ARCo models, such as the Verona and Zenith Flue. Its most notable feature is that each section consisted of just one column, unlike the multi-columned ornate models like the National or Rococo. In keeping with its Italian inspiration, this design featured lavish royal patterns and a central Cupid-inspired cherub, adding a romantic and classic touch to its aesthetic.
