A kitchen’s mood is set long before the first pan heats up. When the range is crowned with stone, the whole room feels grounded and welcoming. Ancient Surfaces designs and installs reclaimed limestone kitchen hoods that do more than hide ventilation, they anchor the space with craft, material honesty, and pieces that already carry a story.
One approach we love is the hand-carved French limestone hood with scrolling acanthus along a deep frieze and a soft arched skirt. The carving reads beautifully in natural light and pairs easily with pro-grade appliances and pot fillers. We engineer each surround to integrate a proper liner and blower, so you get the look of an antique stone range hood with modern performance and code-ready ventilation.
For clients drawn to classical ornament, Ancient Surfaces restores rare hoods with garlands, urns, and bead moldings, true antique limestone cooker hoods that feel collected, not manufactured. The patina is authentic; edges are hand-softened, not sandblasted. Set against wood cabinetry or plaster walls, these pieces become the kitchen’s heirloom focal point.
Some homes call for cleaner lines. Our monolithic “campana” profile, gently flared like a bell delivers presence without fuss. Large plains of reclaimed limestone catch the light, while a discreet mantle band frames the opening. This Tuscan stone hood works brilliantly under beams and over wide ranges where you need serious capture but prefer a calm silhouette.
Scale and fit matter, so we also build custom limestone hoods to exact dimensions. Corbelled legs, measured reveals, and proper projection create the right “umbrella” over your cooktop for real-world cooking. We size liners, baffle filters, and CFM to the range, then leave installers clear access for electrical, ducting, and servicing, beauty backed by sound mechanics.
If you’re searching for a reclaimed limestone kitchen hood, antique stone range hood, or a custom French/Tuscan hood tailored to your space, Ancient Surfaces will source, restore, and engineer the piece that fits how you cook and live. Tell us your range size, ceiling height, and style direction, we’ll turn your ventilation into architecture.
