A look at our favorite custom white range hoods with brass corbels, straps, and trim details — photographed fresh from our Mexico City workshop. Each piece is made to order.

There's a moment in our Mexico City atelier, just before a finished hood ships out, when it sits under the workshop lights and you can see everything. The weight of the metal. The evenness of the white finish across every panel. The way the brass details catch the light differently depending on the angle — warm in one direction, almost golden in another.

That's the moment we photograph.

Not a staged kitchen. Not a lifestyle set. Just the piece itself, exactly as our artisans left it, in the space where it was made. We think there's something honest about that — and something beautiful.

This post is a look at some of our favorite white range hoods with brass details, shown the way we know them best: fresh from the hands that built them.

Why White and Brass?

It's one of our most requested combinations, and once you understand why, it's hard to argue with it.

White is the rare finish that works across almost every kitchen style — French country, transitional, Hamptons, New England, Mediterranean, even quietly modern. It reads as clean without being cold, classic without being heavy. A white range hood doesn't compete with your cabinetry. It anchors the wall and lets the shape do the talking.

Brass is the detail that makes it extraordinary.

Not gold — brass. There's a difference. Brass has depth and warmth that gold doesn't, and it ages into something even more beautiful over time. When we apply brass details to a white hood — whether as straps, rivets, molding trim, or decorative corbels — it creates a contrast that feels intentional and sophisticated. It's the difference between a hood that fills a space and one that defines it.

Together, white and brass hit a very specific sweet spot that designers keep returning to: timeless, but not boring. Luxurious, but not loud.

A Note on What You're Looking At

The hoods in this post are photographed in our workshop in Mexico, where every Amoretti Brothers piece is made by hand. You'll see them against the backdrop of our atelier — raw walls, natural light, the occasional glimpse of tools or workbenches.

We chose to show them this way deliberately. A range hood is, at its core, a crafted object. Seeing it in the environment where it was made tells you something a styled kitchen shoot can't: that real hands built this, that real skill lives in every joint and seam, and that the finish you're looking at was applied with care, not a machine.

Each of the hoods below is custom. Dimensions, finish variations, brass placement, and decorative detail are all made to order — what you see here are examples of what's possible, not a catalog.

The Designs

‍

The French Country — White with Brushed Brass Straps and Rivets - MICHELLE

This is our most requested silhouette, and looking at it, it's easy to understand why. The shape is the story: a double curve that swells outward at the base and pulls inward at the waist before flaring again at the crown — a classic French country profile that has been used in European kitchens for centuries and still feels completely current.

The brass here is brushed, not polished — a deliberate choice that softens the contrast with the white and gives the piece a warmer, more grounded character. Vertical straps follow the curve of the body from top to base, secured with individual hand-placed rivets along every edge and seam. Nothing is hidden or minimized. The construction is part of the design.

This hood tends to find its way into French country, transitional, and Provence-inspired kitchens — often alongside a Lacanche or La Cornue range where the wall needs an anchor strong enough to hold its own. The brushed brass finish also means it pairs naturally with unlacquered hardware that will develop its own patina over time, so the whole kitchen ages together.

The Modern European — White with Brass Edge Trim - CLASSICA

Where the French Country uses brass as decoration running across the surface, this design does the opposite. The body is completely uninterrupted white — no straps, no rivets, no detail breaking the plane. The brass appears only at the very top as a wide crown band and at the base as a clean frame, containing the form rather than adorning it.

The result is architectural rather than ornamental. The tapered silhouette — widening gradually from crown to base in a single clean sweep — reads almost as a geometric sculpture when seen straight on. The satin brass finish keeps it warm without competing with the white body.

This is the hood for the kitchen that wants the combination of white and brass but prefers a leaner, more contemporary expression of it. It works particularly well in transitional and modern kitchens where cabinetry is handleless or minimal — spaces where one strong, well-proportioned object is more effective than multiple decorative moments. It also photographs exceptionally well in wide kitchen shots because the unbroken white face reads clearly from a distance.

The Eugene — Wide White Hood with Brass Straps and Towel Bar

Some kitchens are built around a professional range — a 48-inch or 60-inch cooktop that demands a hood wide enough and strong enough to match it. The Eugene is that hood.

Where our other designs prioritize silhouette and decorative detail, the Eugene leads with scale and utility. The body is broad and low-profile, designed to sit close to the cooking surface and cover serious ground. Three brushed brass straps run vertically across the face, secured with individual hand-set rivets — the same construction language as the French Country, but translated into something flatter and more architectural.

The detail that sets it apart is the brass towel bar running the full width of the hood at the front edge. It's a functional element — a place to hang a kitchen towel or a pot holder — but it also does real design work. It frames the bottom of the hood with a clean horizontal line, gives the eye a place to land, and adds a warmth that a raw metal edge wouldn't.

This hood is for the serious kitchen. The one with a La Cornue or a Wolf range, an island big enough to seat six, and an owner who cooks. The white finish keeps it from feeling industrial, and the brass details give it the same elevated character as everything else in this post — just in a form built for a different kind of cooking life.

The Dome — White Panels with Full Polished Brass Structure - BISTRO

This is the one that stops people mid-scroll.

Where our other white and brass designs use brass as an accent — a trim line, a corbel, a strap — the Dome inverts that logic entirely. Here, the brass is the architecture. Eleven polished brass ribs run from a solid brass base plate up and over the curved body of the hood, meeting at a brass crown collar at the top. The white panels sit between them, recessed and smooth, giving the eye somewhere to rest between the gleam of the metal.

The result is something closer to a lantern or a cathedral vault than a conventional range hood. It is, without question, the most sculptural piece we make.

The finish on this piece is high-polish brass — mirror bright, deeply reflective, the kind of surface that picks up the light in a kitchen and throws it back differently throughout the day. It pairs with white Lacanche or La Cornue ranges naturally, and with kitchen cabinetry in deep navy, forest green, or warm white where a bold focal point is the intention from the start.

This hood is for the kitchen that has already committed to making a statement. If you're asking whether it's too much — it probably isn't.

On Customization

Every hood in this post was made to a specific brief — specific dimensions, specific brass placement, specific finish tone. White, for instance, is not one thing. We work with warm whites, cool whites, matte whites, and whites with subtle texture variations depending on what the rest of the kitchen is doing. Brass details can be aged, polished, brushed, or left to develop a natural patina over time.

The conversation that produces a piece like these usually starts simply: a client has a kitchen style in mind, a range they've already chosen, dimensions they need to fill. From there, our team produces a CAD drawing for approval and three sets of photographs during production, so you can follow the piece as it's being built.

Lead time for custom range hoods is typically 9–12 weeks from order confirmation.
