The breathable hemp and organic cotton blend offers a relaxed, comfortable feel that softens over time. Pair with our natural fitted sheet and matching duvet cover for a calming, cohesive bed. Each set is neatly packaged in a fabric bag which makes for easy storage, or could alternatively be used as a garment bag.
Our Stylist Says
I love the nkuku Borba hemp and cotton pillowcases for their understated, natural appeal. The rich espresso colour adds warmth and depth, making them versatile for both contemporary and rustic interiors. These pillowcases work particularly well in neutral or earthy schemes, offering a subtle contrast when paired with lighter linens or textiles. Practical styling tips include layering them with patterned or textured cushions to create a cosy, layered look or keeping them as a statement piece for a pared-back aesthetic. Their hemp and cotton blend ensures durability and a natural feel, making them suitable for everyday use in living rooms or bedrooms that embrace a relaxed, eco-conscious style.

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.
