Description
A fresh take on our best-selling Abe armchair, now available in a timeless new stripe. Crafted with a natural linen base and soft charcoal stripe, this linen armchair blends classic style with relaxed elegance. The exposed mango wood frame and deconstructed sides add character and charm, making it a standout addition to any interior and living room.
Our Stylist Says
The nkuku Abe deconstructed linen armchair is a versatile piece that adds a laid-back, yet refined touch to a variety of interiors. Its natural, neutral tone and relaxed design make it perfect for everyday living spaces, especially those with a bohemian, Scandinavian, or rustic aesthetic. I love how its deconstructed look gives it an effortless charm, making it easy to style with textured throws or patterned cushions for a personalised feel. Practical tips include pairing it with warm natural fibres-like a woven rug or linen curtains-and keeping the surrounding décor understated to let the chair’s simple elegance shine. It works particularly well in a corner nook or as an accent piece to bring a cosy, inviting atmosphere.

About Nkuku
Established in 2003, Nkuku offers ethically sourced, handcrafted, and eco-friendly homewares and furniture. Their pieces introduce an element of rustic elegance to your space, perfect for creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Inspired by the artisans they met during a world trip in 2002, Ali and Alex established Nkuku, a brand that celebrates handmade techniques and traditional skills from artisans across the world.
The journey began with a business plan drafted on a beach, with the name "Nkuku" taken from a Zambian village they passed.
Starting in Devon, they initially sold products from their travels at local markets. Eventually, Nkuku transitioned from a wholesale business to a known retail brand, offering a wide range of homewares, from tableware to furniture.
Nkuku is not just about selling products; it's about values. They are committed to an ethical approach, partnering with independent businesses, social projects, and cooperatives. Their focus? Building transparent, strong relationships with suppliers to ensure mutual success.
They're also environmentally conscious, incorporating natural and recycled materials into their products. From golden hemp and reclaimed mango wood to textiles recycled from old t-shirts, Nkuku champions sustainability and eco-friendly production methods.
Every Nkuku product tells a tale, capturing the essence of traditional, handmade craftsmanship. By embracing low-impact production methods, they bring collections that are individually crafted, ensuring each piece is unique.
The brand cherishes the age-old knowledge passed down through generations of artisans. It's not just about home décor for them; it's about keeping a rich heritage alive and celebrating the beauty of handmade uniqueness.
