I need a wood burning insert, looking for ideas on brands/models...

Style:
black metal, as minimalist / modern as possible.

Size:
will be on the smaller size, needs to be pretty shallow.

Purpose:
mostly for aesthetics and charm, not really for warming the house. so no need for vents.


Thanks!
 
Morso 5660, Regency CI1250 Pacific Energy Neo 1.6 and Osburn Matrix are some clean minimalistic inserts. Note that all of these units require and existing fireplace to install into. Is this what you want or do you want modern looking zero clearance fireplace?

We are adding a 45-degree sheetrocked wall in a corner where a fireplace will go. There is access to a chimney in that corner. Since we
re building a new wall there no existing fireplace. I guess we should be looking at zero-clearance.
 
Ah ok, that will be a different set of parameters entirely. You will need to put in a new, dedicated metal chimney for the fireplace. It doesn't tap into an existing chimney like a freestanding woodstove. Is that still ok? If so, the Pacific Energy FP16 may work.
