Product Description
The low-profile hammered copper under-cabinet box hood combines a compact cabinet-level profile with an uninterrupted artisan copper surface. Formed from 16-gauge copper, the shell measures 10 inches high and 20 inches deep, with widths of 28, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, or 78 inches. Its broad rectangular fascia fits beneath upper cabinetry without a chimney, projecting apron, crown molding, straps, rivets, or decorative panels. Dense hand-hammered impressions create depth across the otherwise minimal front, while the antique fired patina settles more deeply into the recessed marks. Crisp end returns, a narrow folded perimeter, and a slightly recessed underside give the hood a fitted architectural appearance.

Low-Profile Design
This hood is designed as a cabinet-integrated architectural enclosure rather than a conventional wall hood with a tall chimney. Its high width-to-height ratio creates a long horizontal form that visually connects the cabinets on both sides of the cooking area. Straight upper and lower edges emphasize width, while the shallow rectangular body keeps the hood compact beneath the cabinet line. See how this handcrafted under-cabinet box hood complements custom cabinetry in our hammered copper box under-cabinet range hood lifestyle guide.
Uninterrupted Copper Fascia
The front contains no vertical divisions, applied straps, exposed rivets, framed panels, raised artwork, or ornamental trim. This continuous hammered plane gives the hood a calmer appearance than decorated copper models and allows the material itself to become the focal point. Changes in hammer depth, reflected light, and patina provide visual movement without interrupting the simple box geometry.
Returns and Underside
Crisp vertical returns reveal the hood as a three-dimensional enclosure rather than a flat decorative panel. Lightly eased corner transitions soften the rectangular form while preserving its tailored appearance beside Shaker, inset, or flat-panel cabinetry. The underside sits slightly behind the front edge, keeping filters, lighting, controls, and liner components visually secondary while preserving access for routine use and service.
Copper and Patina
Dense, closely spaced hammer marks cover the front and visible returns. The texture is refined rather than aggressively distressed, creating a tactile surface that softens the strict geometry of the box. Raised areas catch warm highlights, while recessed impressions retain deeper tones. The illustrated antique fired patina falls between medium and dark reddish brown, with natural tonal variation around edges, seams, and hammered valleys.
Because every shell is formed and finished by hand, no two surfaces will be identical. Hammer placement, patina depth, edge transitions, and reflected color may vary slightly. These differences are expected characteristics of artisan copperwork rather than manufacturing defects. Available patinas and surface treatments should be reviewed before production so the finish coordinates with cabinetry, counters, tile, hardware, and nearby metals.
Custom Configuration
Standard widths include 28, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, and 78 inches. The standard shell is 10 inches high and 20 inches deep. Project-specific dimensions may be reviewed when cabinetry, range width, installation conditions, or ventilation equipment require a modified enclosure.
Buyers should confirm the fascia width, overall height, projection, return depth, underside recess, insert opening, edge treatment, hammering density, and patina before production. Wider hoods require careful proportioning so the uninterrupted face remains balanced and the underside provides suitable room for filters, controls, lighting, and service access.
Ventilation Planning
The copper body is an insert-ready shell and does not include a universal blower system. Rustica House can supply the optional 200 CFM insert only. This range hood supports buyer-supplied inserts up to 1,260 CFM and external blower systems up to 1,500 CFM when complete specifications are provided before production. Review equipment and fit requirements in the range hood insert guide.
Information Before Fabrication
Provide the insert manufacturer, model number, body dimensions, required cutout, filter location, lighting layout, control position, duct diameter, outlet location, wiring requirements, and access needs. Any remote blower connections, unusual duct transitions, rear outlets, or nonstandard liner components must be identified before the shell dimensions are approved.
Cabinet Service Access
The upper cabinet, wall blocking, and attachment points must support both the copper enclosure and the selected ventilation equipment. Confirm that cabinet doors, shelves, hinges, trim, and backsplash materials will not interfere with filters, controls, lights, or removable liner parts. The cabinetmaker, ventilation supplier, and installer should coordinate the interior structure before production begins.

Craftsmanship
The functional profile reflects modern cabinet-integrated ventilation, where mechanical components are concealed inside a compact horizontal enclosure. The surface comes from a much older metalworking tradition. Each hood is cut, formed, joined, hammered, finished, and inspected by hand in Santa Clara del Cobre, Michoacán. This combination of streamlined appliance architecture and visible artisan workmanship distinguishes the hood from a uniform machine-embossed metal cover.
