Range Hood With Decorative Victorian Detail
This section of Wood Shavings invites you to see newly completed cabinetry before it leaves our cabinet shop! Each month we feature a snapshot of an interesting piece and share the details of its design.

Custom range hood built to showcase customer provided decorative metal detail
|
A client from Darien, Connecticut had previously purchased some metal Victorian details and wanted to incorporate them into their kitchen cabinetry. With the help of Randy Fullam, our Special Project Detail Coordinator, we worked with this client to build a range hood that would showcase the intricate metal grate. The result is a beautiful one-of-a-kind range hood! In addition, the client provided two additional, smaller metal patterns that were incorporated into the doors of other cabinetry in the kitchen.
