Why Choose the Belle Maison Zinc Hood?

The Belle Maison hood is more than just a vent—it’s a work of art rooted in tradition and elevated by modern craftsmanship. Its flared French silhouette embodies architectural grace, while its use of mixed metals tells a story of texture, heritage, and refinement. If your goal is to create a focal point that feels timeless, bespoke, and slightly bold, this hood is the perfect choice.

The hammered copper T-straps, applied by hand, add a vertical rhythm to the design. Meanwhile, the copper apron serves as a visual base, providing weight and stability. These details lend themselves perfectly to kitchens with French country cabinetry, stone backsplashes, vintage lighting, or even ultra-modern flat-panel cabinetry seeking an artisanal counterpoint.

Artisan Testimony

“When we work with blackened zinc, there’s an extra challenge—the finish has to be polished just right so it doesn't dull the copper contrast. That’s the beauty of this hood—it’s soft, bold, and rich all at once. When finished, it’s like seeing a painting come alive in metal.”
