Product Description
This flared copper range hood with iron straps and raised starflower apron combines a structured tapered silhouette with handcrafted decorative metalwork. A straight-edged crown finishes the narrow chimney before the body widens gradually toward the cooking surface, creating architectural presence without overwhelming the surrounding cabinetry. Dark iron straps follow the slope and are punctuated by exposed round rivets, while the deep lower apron carries a distinctive raised starflower motif. Choose smooth copper for quieter, continuous metal planes or hand-hammered texture for greater light variation and artisan character. Six copper patinas provide options from lighter fired tones to deeper aged finishes. Handcrafted in Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico, the enclosure is made to order for wall or kitchen-island installation. For more details about its handcrafted construction, flared proportions, and decorative metalwork, see our flared copper range hood with iron straps and starflower apron guide. Customize this starflower copper hood for your kitchen today.

Custom Sizing
Each enclosure is made to order so the narrow chimney, expanding canopy, strap spacing, and decorated apron remain proportional. Widths are available from 28 to 78 inches, heights from 24 to 72 inches, and standard depth is 24 inches. Custom dimensions allow the hood to coordinate with residential ranges, professional cooking equipment, cabinetry, backsplash materials, and varying ceiling heights while preserving the recognizable tapered profile.
Measurements Needed
Provide the cooking-surface width, desired hood width, overall height, ceiling height, mounting height, finished depth, cabinet clearances, backsplash thickness, and planned duct location. Island projects also require the cooktop centerline and available ceiling framing. Accurate measurements help maintain balanced canopy and apron proportions. Review our copper range hood sizing guide before confirming dimensions.
Ventilation
The handcrafted enclosure and mechanical ventilation equipment are planned separately. Rustica House can provide an optional 200 CFM insert for compatible applications. Buyer-supplied internal inserts up to 1,260 CFM and external blower systems up to 1,500 CFM can be accommodated when complete specifications are provided before production. The hood can be prepared for top or rear duct routing and compatible ducted or recirculating installations when appropriate for the selected equipment.
Drawing Approval
Confirm the width, height, depth, crown dimensions, strap placement, apron height, insert opening, and duct centerline before fabrication. For buyer-supplied ventilation, provide the manufacturer, model, cutout dimensions, duct size, controls, lighting, filters, electrical requirements, and service clearances. Early approval helps coordinate the enclosure with cabinetry, structural framing, backsplash construction, electrical service, ductwork, and mechanical equipment.
Flared Architecture
The silhouette begins with a narrow rectangular chimney and expands through long tapered sides toward a substantial lower apron. This produces more movement than a simple box enclosure while remaining less rounded than a dome or bell profile. A straight crown provides a restrained horizontal finish at the top. Below it, the sloping copper planes, dark vertical straps, and ornamented apron establish a clear progression from simple upper geometry to detailed lower metalwork.
Tapered Canopy
Long outward slopes connect the narrow chimney with the broader capture area above the cooking surface. Generous copper fields remain visible between the straps, allowing either surface texture to contribute to the appearance. Hammered copper creates changing highlights and shallow shadows, while the smooth option emphasizes uninterrupted patina and geometry. The taper also provides a strong architectural transition between upper cabinetry or ceiling space and the range below.
Iron Straps
Dark iron straps travel vertically across the warm copper body and follow the changing slope of the canopy. Exposed round rivets provide repeated points of detail while leaving most of the copper surface visible. Unlike matching copper banding, the contrasting iron creates a distinct framework that reinforces vertical movement. This mixed-metal treatment adds visual definition without requiring extensive ornament across the entire canopy.
Starflower Apron
The deep lower apron carries a raised starflower motif that gives this model its most recognizable decorative feature. Its geometric floral form references decorative traditions found in Mexican and Southwestern craft while remaining distinct from scrolling botanical or vine-based apron patterns. Concentrating the relief along the base keeps the upper canopy comparatively restrained. The starflower, surrounding copper, iron straps, and rivets therefore read as separate but coordinated layers of the design.
Unique Design
This model is distinguished by the combination of a straight crown, elongated flared body, contrasting iron straps, exposed rivets, and raised starflower apron. Rather than relying on generic hammering or strap decoration as its primary identity, the design places a recognizable motif at the cooking-area edge and supports it with cleaner tapered architecture above. The option of smooth or hammered copper further changes the surface character without altering the hood's defining proportions or decorative composition.
Copper Texture
Choose smooth or hand-hammered copper according to the desired level of surface movement. Smooth copper emphasizes continuous metal planes, patina variation, and the contrast of the dark straps. Random hammering introduces shallow individual impressions that scatter reflected light and create greater tonal depth. Because the hammer marks are produced by hand, their spacing, depth, and orientation naturally vary, making each hammered enclosure slightly different.
Copper Finishes
Six patina options allow the hood to coordinate with different cabinetry, stone, tile, flooring, and hardware. Available finishes include natural fired, coffee, antique, honey, green oxidized, and hand-polished copper. Lighter tones create stronger contrast with the dark iron straps, while deeper finishes produce a quieter mixed-metal transition. Because patinas are artisan applied, natural tonal variation should be expected. Compare available colors in the copper patina finish guide.
Mounting Options
The enclosure can be fabricated for wall-mounted or kitchen-island installation. Mounting type should be established before production because structural support, exposed surfaces, finishing requirements, and ventilation preparation differ. Both versions retain the straight crown, tapered canopy, iron strap arrangement, exposed rivets, and starflower apron that identify the design.
Wall-Mount Version
The wall-mounted version places the rear surface against plaster, stone, brick, handmade tile, or slab backsplashes. Its tapered body works naturally between cabinets or within a dedicated cooking alcove. Confirm wall framing, backsplash thickness, cabinet clearances, mounting height, electrical service, ventilation opening, and duct position before fabrication so the custom enclosure integrates correctly with surrounding construction.
Kitchen Island Version
The island version finishes exposed surfaces for viewing from multiple directions. Side and angled perspectives reveal the changing canopy planes, strap profile, apron depth, texture, and patina more clearly. Island projects require suitable overhead structure and advance coordination of cooktop position, ceiling framing, mounting height, electrical service, ventilation equipment, and duct routing.
Buyer Planning
Coordinate dimensions, copper texture, patina, mounting method, ventilation equipment, and structural requirements before ordering. Changes in overall size can affect the relationship between the chimney, canopy, strap spacing, and apron. Planning these elements together also reduces conflicts involving cabinetry, backsplash thickness, ceiling trim, electrical connections, ductwork, lighting, filters, controls, and future service access.

Copper Craftsmanship
Each enclosure is handcrafted in Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico. Coppersmiths cut and form the metal, establish the tapered profile, prepare the chosen smooth or hammered surface, shape the starflower apron, fit the iron straps and rivets, assemble the enclosure, and apply the selected patina. Small differences in forming, tool marks, motif definition, seams, rivet positioning, edge work, and coloration are natural characteristics of individually produced metalwork.
Coppersmith Testimony
The widening body requires careful forming so the straps remain balanced as they travel from the narrow chimney toward the apron. Decorative apron work must also remain proportional when the hood is produced in different custom dimensions. Learn more about the artisans and regional techniques in the Juan Carlos Hernández copper artisan guide.
