Range hoods are available in a wide variety of materials including metal, wood, and stone; stucco or plaster hoods are popular choices for kitchens with an Old World or Tuscan influence and range hoodscan lend an authentic feeling to the design aesthetic.  “The Old World style relies on texture, and pairing a stucco hood with distressed cabinetry and oil rubbed bronze finishes can immerse your kitchen into that style more fully,” added Troy. “Stucco hoods also have the option of varying the texture of the surface with either a heavy or light application, a level of flexibility that makes them even more popular in these styles of kitchen.”
