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-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.

Maintenance and Aging
Clean the hood with mild soap and water, drying well to avoid spots. Skip acidic cleaners, and apply wax a few times yearly to protect the finish. Brushed zinc will darken gracefully, while dark straps may develop natural highlights over time.
Considerations
Zinc is softer than steel, so avoid impacts. The darkened finish can wear on high-touch areas over time, and periodic refinishing may be preferred to maintain a consistent look.
