54-Inch Copper Range Hoods: Balance, Craft, and Visual Impact for Exceptional Kitchens

Large kitchens deserve design elements that match their scale and elegance. A 54-inch copper range hood is not just a ventilation solution—it’s a statement centerpiece that defines the entire kitchen atmosphere. This size is ideal for homeowners and designers seeking both artisan craftsmanship and functional performance in one breathtaking piece.

Grandeur That Sets the Tone

When working with wide spaces, visual proportion matters. A 54-inch range hood delivers the perfect balance between utility and architecture. Its span comfortably covers cooktops with six or more burners, making it ideal for gourmet cooking zones or oversized island installations.

But even if you don’t cook daily, this hood elevates your space with warmth, symmetry, and timeless style. It becomes the visual anchor in any premium kitchen layout.

Custom-Built to Fit Your Vision

At My Rustica, each 54-inch copper hood is handcrafted in Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico. Made-to-order construction allows you to tailor every detail:

  • Metal Texture: Choose smooth for modern elegance, or hand-hammered for rustic charm
  • Patina Finishes: Coffee, Antique, Natural, Honey, Green oxidized (additional cost), or Polished
  • Height Range: From 24” to 96” depending on ceiling height and kitchen volume
  • Mount Style: Wall-mount or suspended island installation
  • Ventilation: This model is designed for a customer-supplied insert (motor, lights, and filters are not included)

Design Without Compromise

A hood of this size doesn’t just function—it defines the kitchen’s personality. Its wide silhouette and aged copper finish can complement various design directions:

  • Modern kitchens, where copper adds contrast to sleek materials
  • Traditional spaces with carved wood, stone, and classic finishes
  • Transitional layouts blending old-world detail with contemporary lines
  • Rustic and farmhouse kitchens that celebrate texture and heritage materials

Pair it with hand-painted tile, exposed beams, or artisan lighting to complete the look. Discover more design options at our Copper Range Hoods collection or explore other Metal Range Hoods.

Installation Considerations

Before installing your 54-inch range hood, here are a few important points:

  • Maintain 30 to 36 inches of clearance between the cooktop and hood
  • For island mounting, make sure the ceiling is structurally reinforced
  • Choose an insert with the right CFM based on your cooking habits
  • Ensure the ducting path is straight and properly aligned to improve airflow

  • Zinc – Perfect for soft matte modern interiors
  • Iron – Ideal for bold, industrial or rustic settings
  • Brass – Adds gold-toned luxury to classic and deco styles
