lorenza Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 good morning to all of you I took some pictures of "stufe ad olle" (in Italian) antice. They would be pictures of tiled stoves. The exact description in English and possibly in "British English" how should it be? And any synonyms. I have not yet arranged the images, I still have them in raw format and therefore I insert an image that is not mine. Google image capture (wikipedia) ... thanks to those who want to suggest the exact translation ... https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stufa_a_olle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Crellin Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 "tiled stoves" as you said yourself conveys the sort of thing you are going to see - but it's worth putting the Italian in as a tag surely as well if that is the accepted term? Suggest "ornate stoves" as well. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazmander Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I think I’d want the word ‘faience’ in there somewhere. I don’t know Italian, but the word may be of Italian origin. There’s a word in the Wiki entry that looks close. Perhaps a place name? Gareth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
