cool custom range hood by Oak Hill Iron, this one looks like nickle silver
This beautiful one really stands out and would work well in a contemporary setting, too.

This appears to be a nickle silver range hood, but could also be a custom stainless steel one as well.
The verdigris finish on this range hood adds interest and texture
angular, smooth and simple, this could be an oil rubbed bronze range hood
a long narrow powder coated range hood styled with the the high ceilings and cabinetry involved.
copper range hood with strapping, a popular look
This style is what I refer to as new vintage, an echo from the 20's with a few contemporary twists

I don't know about lead coated hoods, but you can use a dark finished nickel silver or zinc and get the same look
