The Kitchen Stone Hoods

The kitchen stone hood is one of those elements of interior decor that greatly add to the aesthetic appeal of a house. In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to suggest that its value addition to the interior design of many homes is unrivaled. The article is not however going to dwell on matters aesthetics; rather the article will focus on the configuration of the kitchen stone hood. Whether your stone hood is a limestone hood, travertine hood, or whatever luxury hood (custom design stone range hood/ French limestone custom hood etc); the configuration of your hood is similar in all respects. To that end your typical high ceiling stone hood is configured in the following manner:

  •  The Over hood: This is the foremost / tip of your hood. This part might touch the ceiling or it might be some distance shy of touching the ceiling. The sides of the overboard also vary. They might be tapered, they might be slanted, or they might be straight.
  •  The Header: This is the central part of the hood. The header might be slanted or straight. It might be plain or have decorative designs on its surface. It basically rests on the base of the Over hood.
  •   The support: These are basically the legs of the kitchen stone hood. They might be made from columns, Corbels, or any other legs out there. They can be viewed as the roots of the range hood that stands in the kitchen.

 

The crux of the matter is this: Regardless of whether you kitchen is adorned with a 48” stone range hood or a 60” stone range hood; regardless of whether your kitchen hood comes from Texas, New York, California, or even Los Angels – the anatomy of your hood remains the same, and that is the hearth of the matter.
