Handmade Copper Range Hood Cover

Add sophistication and rustic charm to your kitchen with this Handmade Copper Range Hood Cover from Rustica House. Crafted from hammered copper with a dark, timeworn patina, this hood cover brings warmth and timeless appeal to any culinary space. Its French-inspired silhouette and artisanal detailing make it a striking focal point that complements farmhouse, traditional, or Old-World interiors.

1. Distinctive Stepped Chimney

The hood begins with a small, square chimney section featuring a two-tiered, stepped design. A narrow upper tier transitions via a subtle horizontal band into a slightly wider middle section, creating an elegantly graduated profile. This artisanal form evokes the charm of classic European chimneys and adds architectural interest to your kitchen.

2. Pronounced Crown Molding

Atop the chimney, a pronounced crown molding caps the design with stately refinement. The molded edge is hand-formed and soldered, its strong geometry contrasting beautifully with the hood’s gently sloping panels. This crown evokes the cornices of French provincial estates, bringing an Old-World sensibility to modern kitchens.

3. Broad Flared Base

Below the chimney, the hood transitions into a broad, flared base. The wide flare maximizes smoke and odor capture, while its generous proportions provide a bold visual anchor above your cooktop. The continuous hammered texture across all panels catches the light in shifting highlights, underscoring the handmade craftsmanship.

4. Horizontal Trim Definition

A horizontal flat trim band separates the stepped chimney from the flared canopy. This clean banding delineates the two main sections, adding crisp visual distinction and reinforcing the hood’s balanced proportions. The trim is precisely aligned, showcasing the artisan’s attention to every detail.

5. Hand-Hammered Texture & Patina

The entire hood cover is hand-hammered by skilled coppersmiths in Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico. Each gentle indentation creates an organic surface that diffuses light and emphasizes the dark patina’s depth. Over time, the patina will mature, developing richer chestnut and bronze highlights that enhance the hood’s character.

6. Functional Ventilation Ready

Although this is a decorative cover, it’s designed to accommodate optional blower inserts and baffle filters. Simply slip the cover over your existing insert hood to transform its appearance without losing performance. Ventilation-ready cutouts align with standard 6″–8″ duct openings, making professional installation seamless.

7. Customization & Installation

8. Styling & Pairing Suggestions

This hood cover’s French-inspired form and dark patina make it versatile across design schemes:

• French Country: Pair with cream-painted cabinets, marble countertops, and antique brass fixtures for provincial elegance.
• Farmhouse Rustic: Complement with reclaimed wood beams, butcher-block islands, and farmhouse sinks for cozy charm.
• Transitional: Contrast the hood’s texture against sleek quartz counters and matte-black hardware for balanced sophistication.

9. Care & Maintenance

Keep your hood cover looking its best with minimal effort:

• Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap weekly.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners or pads that could damage the patina.
• Every 6–12 months, apply a thin coat of beeswax polish to enrich the finish and protect the copper.
