nkuku Elbu Deconstructed Jacquard Weave Armchair | Seating | Charcoal
Our Stylist Says
I’m a big fan of the Elbu chair for its relaxed mix of traditional carving and open-back upholstery - it brings just the right amount of character without feeling too formal. The charcoal jacquard weave pairs well with natural wood tones and muted neutrals, so it slips effortlessly into Scandi-inspired lounges, country-style kitchens or a pared-back home office.
For styling, add a textured linen or wool cushion in a soft neutral and drape a mohair throw over one arm to boost comfort. Position it beside a low side table and a leafy plant to create a simple reading nook, or group two together either side of a console for extra seating with personality.

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.
