The Queen Anne Cottage, located in Los Angeles County, California, was constructed in 1885 and is an example of Victorian architecture. Due to its historic nature, the exact style of the oven in the kitchen may vary. However, during the Victorian era, various types of ovens were used in domestic kitchens.
Common types of ovens during the Victorian era included:
1. Cast-iron stoves: These freestanding ovens were made of cast iron and featured multiple burners and an oven compartment. They often had ornate details and were fueled by wood or coal.
2. Coal-fired ranges: These ranges were similar to cast-iron stoves but were larger and provided more cooking surface area. They typically had an integrated oven with separate compartments for baking and roasting.
3. Brick ovens: Some Victorian kitchens had brick ovens built into the walls. These ovens were constructed using refractory bricks and were fueled by wood or coal. They were commonly used for baking bread, pastries, and other traditional dishes.
Without specific information about the oven in the Queen Anne Cottage's kitchen, it is difficult to determine its exact style.
