Zinc Range Hood – Talavera Soul

Product Description

Product Description

Bring a sense of grounded elegance and artisanal charm to your kitchen with the Talavera Soul Zinc Range Hood. This handcrafted Mexican-style range hood features a clean, smooth zinc surface complemented by five evenly spaced vertical straps and refined apron moldings that add structure and visual rhythm. The design evokes the graceful curves and ornamental accents often found in Mexican colonial architecture, interpreted here with a more contemporary and streamlined edge.

As seen in the photos, the body of the hood curves outward subtly from the bottom before gently flaring at the apron, creating a fluid and sculptural profile. Each of the five straps is defined by decorative rivets that add texture and a nod to traditional ironwork. The lower apron molding is tiered and dimensional, serving both as a visual anchor and a functional element that draws the eye downward in a balanced finish.

With its symmetrical paneling, soft metallic sheen, and careful hand-finishing, the Talavera Soul strikes a balance between artisanal craftsmanship and architectural discipline—ideal for kitchens that blend rustic warmth with clean, modern lines.

Why Choose the Talavera Soul Zinc Hood?

This custom zinc hood blends the decorative richness of traditional Mexican design with the simplicity and sophistication of modern finishes. Whether you're designing a rustic hacienda kitchen or a transitional space with global influences, the Talavera Soul will serve as a powerful focal point above your stove.

The combination of vertical straps and apron molding gives the hood a box-like geometry with a curved flair—making it a great example of hybrid style. Learn more about how this silhouette compares to box-shaped hoods and pyramid-style hoods on our blog.

Handcrafted in Santa Clara del Cobre, Mexico, this range hood reflects the artisanal legacy of a town famous for its metalwork. Each piece is made to order by skilled artisans, offering a combination of sculptural design, function, and timeless cultural identity. For those seeking a look inspired by traditional Mexican elements with a contemporary edge, the Talavera Soul is unmatched.

Artisan Testimony
