Aurora Hammered Copper Hood Adds Soul to Your Kitchen Remodel

Aurora hammered copper kitchen hood fuses Old‑World artistry with up‑to‑date ventilation. Its soft bell taper, beveled crown, and random hammering catch the light, creating a focal point that elevates any renovation. Copper’s innate antimicrobial benefit keeps prep areas hygienic, while a high‑performance insert tackles smoke and steam with ease.

Design & Style Highlights

The Aurora profile widens gently toward the base, preventing heavy visual weight above cooktops. Horizontal apron straps bordered by subtle rivets introduce rhythmic lines inspired by Mediterranean masonry. Select a warm honey patina for coastal spaces or a deeper espresso tone to complement industrial fixtures.

Transitional design thrives on balance. The hood bridges shaker frames and minimalist hardware, while its refined lines echo both traditional roots and contemporary simplicity.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

Mount the Aurora 30–36 inches above the cooking surface for optimal capture. For island installs, request dual‑sided aprons to keep sight lines symmetrical. Clean with pH‑neutral soap and microfiber; protect the patina with carnauba‑based copper wax every quarter if you wish to slow aging.

Craftsmanship in Santa Clara del Cobre

Every Aurora hood is shaped by third‑generation artisans in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacán. They hammer 16‑gauge recycled copper over timber forms, then fire‑age the metal over mesquite coals to achieve its signature reddish‑gold undertones. Each piece is quenched, burnished, and strap‑riveted by hand, ensuring no two hoods will ever share the same character.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I clean hammered copper?

Use warm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth. Rinse and dry immediately. Apply copper wax every few months to slow patina development if you prefer a brighter tone.

Will the color change over time?

Yes—copper darkens and gains depth as it reacts with the environment, creating a living finish unique to your kitchen. Maintain brightness by waxing or embrace its evolving beauty.

Can I customize size and finish?

Absolutely. Specify width, height, depth, strap pattern, apron motif, and patina during checkout, and our artisans will craft a one‑of‑a‑kind hood for your space.
