A 48-Inch Cherry Hood Shell for a Custom Cabinetry Look

The Omega National Artisan Series range hood is a decorative wood shell in cherry, wall-mounted at 48 inches wide to anchor the space above the cooktop and blend into the surrounding cabinetry. A Broan-compatible liner is included so the ventilator installation can move forward without a separate liner purchase.

Key Features

• Cherry wood construction in the Artisan Series for a rich, warm grain character above the range.
• 48 inches wide by 46 inches tall by 19 inches deep, sized for a commanding presence over a larger cooktop run.
• Broan-compatible liner included so the hood is ready to accept a compatible Broan ventilator.
• Wall-mount configuration designed to install directly against the wall above the cooking surface.
• Ready-to-finish construction so stain or paint can be applied to match the kitchen's existing woodwork.

Anchoring a Larger Kitchen With the Right Hood Footprint

A 48-inch-wide hood shell is the right choice when the cooktop run or the cabinetry layout calls for a wider visual anchor above the range. At this width, the Artisan Series shell spans a broad wall section and gives the design room to balance open shelving, tall cabinetry on either side, or a wide range below. The wall-mount position keeps the profile flush to the wall rather than floating from the ceiling, which suits kitchens with standard ceiling heights or a defined upper-cabinet line.

The Artisan Series profile carries the shaped detail and wood character typical of a traditionally styled kitchen, where the hood reads as furniture rather than an appliance. Because the shell is unfinished cherry, it arrives ready for the finish schedule that matches the rest of the cabinetry, whether that is a clear coat to show the natural grain, a stain to match existing cherry cabinets, or a glazed paint finish.

Cherry Wood and a Ready-to-Finish Surface

Cherry is a closed-grain hardwood that takes stain evenly and finishes smoothly, which makes it a practical choice when the goal is a precise color match to adjacent cabinet doors or trim. The natural cherry tone deepens over time with light exposure, so a clear or lightly tinted finish can develop a richer appearance after installation. Because this shell arrives unfinished, the finisher controls the final color rather than working around a factory coat.

For Kitchens Where the Hood Is Part of the Design

This shell is the right fit for a kitchen remodel or new build where the range hood is treated as a design element, not just a housing for a blower. Cabinet shops finishing a full kitchen in cherry, designers specifying a coordinated wood palette, or contractors sourcing a hood shell for a client who wants a custom-built look will find the Artisan Series a straightforward match. Because the shell arrives unfinished, it fits into the same finishing workflow as the cabinet doors and trim rather than requiring a separate painted or coated surface to be managed on site.

This is the decorative wood enclosure. It does not move air on its own. The included Broan-compatible liner accepts a compatible Broan ventilator, which is selected and ordered separately to match the cooktop output and the ventilation requirements of the space.
