Description
The Jaya occasional chair blends sculptural form with traditional craftsmanship. Its distinctive rounded side profile and hand-carved armrests bring character and visual interest, while the warm tones of acacia wood create a sense of natural calm. Linen cushions soften the silhouette and subtly echo the timber's rich grain, making this chair a beautifully considered addition to both living spaces and bedrooms. | nkuku Jaya Acacia Wood & Linen Occasional Dining Chair | Seating | One Size | Natural
Our Stylist Says
I love this piece because of its natural, minimalist aesthetic that effortlessly complements both modern and rustic interiors. The Jaya chair's acacia wood frame and linen upholstery create a warm, inviting vibe that works well in living rooms, reading nooks, or as occasional seating in dining areas. Style-wise, it pairs beautifully with neutral tones and textured fabrics, so layering with throws or cushions enhances its cosy appeal. Practical tips include using it alongside wooden or woven furniture to maintain a cohesive look, while its compact size makes it versatile enough to fit into smaller spaces or as a feature accent in more open-plan settings.

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.

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.
