Product Description
This zinc range hood with decorative brass corners and straps is built around a classic bell silhouette that blends old-world proportion with tailored metalwork. The body narrows gently through the waist before widening into a broad capture zone, then finishes with a clean, squared chimney that keeps the profile disciplined and architectural. The matte zinc surface shows soft mottling and tonal depth, giving the hood an artisan-made character rather than a flat or glossy appearance. Brass straps and corner trims frame the form, tracing the curves and edges to emphasize structure, while evenly spaced rivets add rhythm and a sense of durability rooted in traditional European craftsmanship.

Overall silhouette and proportion
The hood follows a balanced bell profile with a gentle waist and confident lower flare. This proportion creates strong visual grounding over the cooktop while keeping the upper section refined. The squared chimney provides a crisp transition that prevents the bell shape from feeling overly rustic.
Surface character and material expression
The zinc face reads matte with subtle mottling and natural tonal variation. Light diffuses softly across the surface, giving the hood depth and warmth rather than shine. This restrained finish allows the form and detailing to stand out without visual noise.
Brass straps, corners, and rivets
Brass straps frame the hood vertically and reinforce the corners, acting like architectural ribs. Evenly spaced rivets add a measured rhythm that signals handcrafted construction. The brass introduces warmth and contrast while remaining disciplined and intentional.
European design influence
The combination of zinc, brass, and riveted strapwork reflects historic European metalwork traditions, where structural elements were expressed rather than hidden. This influence gives the hood a timeless presence that adapts easily to both rustic and refined interiors.

Kitchen Design Tips
Why it works in Spanish Revival kitchens
The bell profile echoes traditional plaster hearth hoods, translated here into metal. Warm brass details pair naturally with iron hardware, terra-cotta floors, handmade tile, and textured plaster walls, while zinc stays calm beside bold colors and patterns.
Why it works in modern farmhouse kitchens
The smooth zinc body keeps the look clean and uncluttered, while brass straps add just enough contrast to stand out against painted cabinetry and simple trim. Rivets introduce character without pushing the design toward heavy ornamentation.
Why it works in contemporary classic kitchens
Symmetry and restraint define this style. The squared top and framed edges feel tailored and intentional, while the softened bell curve keeps the space inviting. Zinc adds depth without glare, making it ideal alongside marble and muted palettes.
Care and Maintenance
Wipe zinc and brass surfaces with a soft cloth and mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive pads or acidic cleaners. A neutral wax may be applied occasionally to help protect the finishes and slow patina changes.
