I’d check with your local gas fireplace installer. Often it is a propane gas company or fireplace/stove retailer. In addition to gas logs they also have artificial coal for hob grates and the like.

Subject: Fake Coal?

 

Does anyone know where to get fake coal?  I have a coal scuttle that I'd *love* to fill up, but don't have any idea where even to start on something like this!

 

Thanks,

Catherine Dean
