Description
The Nkuku Fia round dining table has a timeless design and will comfortably seat four people. It's beautifully hand-crafted in India using traditional tools and techniques. The tabletop is made from chunky, natural mango wood and it has strong iron legs designed with a crisscross at their base. The mango wood table top is finished with a sealant and matt lacquer. The mango wood used to make Nkuku's wooden pieces come from mango trees that have stopped bearing fruit. This allows the farmers to plant more trees and provides them with a supplementary income.
Our Stylist Says
I’m a big fan of the Fia table for its straightforward mix of a warm mango-wood top and slender black iron legs - it slots effortlessly into Scandi-inspired, industrial or relaxed boho schemes. Its round shape works well in smaller dining nooks, encouraging easy flow around the room and flexible seating arrangements. For styling, layer a jute or sisal rug underneath to anchor the table, then keep centrepieces simple - think a low ceramic vase of dried stems or a neat cluster of tapered candles. Pair it with mismatched timber or metal chairs (or even a bench to one side) and add texture through linen napkins or a woven table runner to complete the look.

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.
