They are heaters made with ceramic tiles. The heaters burn wood and are designed to more slowly release the smoke so that as much heat as possible would stay in the home. The ceramic absorbs heat and gradually releases it, radiating warmth evenly. They were used in every style of Swedish home, from homey cottages to more formal Gustavian. Their invention was eight times more efficient than other stoves used at the time.
The Kachelofen used much less wood and could heat a larger area. A fire only had to burn in the morning and evening to keep warm all day. A Kachelofen continues to radiate heat for 6 to 12 hours even after the fuel is burned up.

The very hard Swedish winters meant that, even in grander homes, life revolved around only a few rooms at a time because of the difficulty of heating them.
Cronstedt experimented with stoves designed to force the smoke from the fire up and down through a series of pipes and ducts set in heat-retaining bricks before it was allowed to pass through the chimney. Tiled exteriors also helped to retain and reflect heat. These new stoves were vastly more efficient than the old ones had been and they remained warm for hours after the fire had gone out.
