Price History
Description
The Baba glass lamp is a Nkuku bestseller. Combining elegance and style, each lamp is handmade from recycled glass by skilled artisans using traditional techniques. The glass is handblown into a mould, then hammered to create its beautiful, textured finish. Once on, the lamp creates a beautiful, ambient light. This lamp, with its simple design and clean aesthetic, is the perfect addition to your home. Features a brown fabric cord. Please note: lampshade and bulb are not included.
Our Stylist Says
I love the Nkuku Baba lamp base for its versatile and understated style; its large, wide glass design brings a touch of elegance without overwhelming a space. It works particularly well in neutral, minimal, or bohemian interiors, adding a natural yet sophisticated touch. For practical styling, consider pairing it with a textured or linen shade for a soft, diffused glow, and place it on a sideboard, console, or bedside table to create a focal point. Its transparent glass lets you get creative with the bulbs-try Edison style for a warm vintage feel or a sleek modern shape for contemporary schemes. This piece is perfect for adding a bit of understated elegance to living rooms, bedrooms, or even reading nooks.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
