Price History
Description
The Chakai ceiling light showcases two of Nkuku's favourite materials: brass and wood. The warm tones of the brass cage pair beautifully with the natural grain of the mango wood shade. The elegant Chakai pendant looks fabulous positioned over a dining table or kitchen island and makes a striking feature in a living room.
Our Stylist Says
I love this pendant light for its blend of natural wood and brass, which adds warmth and texture to a variety of interiors. It works particularly well in Scandinavian, rustic, or industrial styled spaces, where its organic and metallic elements can complement a mix of materials. When styling, consider hanging it over a dining table or kitchen island for a focal point, and group smaller multiples for a contemporary look. Practical tips include choosing warm-toned bulbs to enhance the natural wood finish and keeping the ceiling height in mind - it looks great in rooms with higher ceilings, but can be adapted through adjustable cords for more compact spaces. Overall, it’s a versatile statement piece that brings a subtle elegance to everyday interiors.

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.
