Product Description
This brushed zinc range hood with darkened zinc straps blends industrial clarity with artisan craft. A graceful bell-shaped taper flares toward the apron while three vertical straps and top-and-bottom bands in darkened zinc frame the brushed panels. The unified zinc construction keeps tone and patina in the same family, delivering bold contrast without mixed metals. Vertical brushing softens reflections, masks light fingerprints, and guides the eye upward for a taller, slimmer read. Order this zinc range hood today to add handcrafted elegance and industrial refinement to your kitchen.

Surface and Finish
The brushed zinc skin shows a soft gray tone with warm undertones that age gracefully. Darkened zinc straps are chemically toned or heat-treated to create contrast while retaining material continuity across the hood.
- Vertical brushing with subtle grain
- Low-glare surface reduces smudging
- Unified zinc tones with layered contrast
- Sealed finish to limit fingerprinting
Strapwork and Rivets
- Three vertical straps plus cross bands
- Recessed or domed dark rivets
- Material continuity minimizes corrosion
- Straps stiffen and frame the shell
Style and Interior Fit
The design bridges European influence with modern industrial clarity. Because straps and body are both zinc, the hood delivers cohesive tones rather than mixed-metal contrast. It pairs naturally with wood, soapstone, and zellige tile.

Maintenance and Aging
Clean with mild soap and water, drying thoroughly to avoid spotting. Avoid acidic cleaners. Apply neutral wax several times per year to protect the finish. Brushed zinc darkens gracefully, while dark straps may develop natural highlights over time.
Care
Clean zinc with mild soap and a soft cloth only. Avoid abrasives and allow natural patina to develop gradually.
Considerations
Zinc is softer than steel and should be protected from impact. Darkened finishes may show wear on high-touch areas over time, and occasional refinishing can help maintain a consistent appearance.
Installation Guide
Mount the hood at standard height above the cooktop for effective capture. Select an insert that matches width and airflow requirements.
