Price History
Description
Sculptural in form and timeless in finish, the Kalik candle holder brings quiet drama to your tabletop, shelves or mantel. Designed for a pillar candle, the forged shape offers a sense of strength and simplicity, while its antique brass surface adds warmth and a touch of patina. Whether used as a single piece or grouped for impact, these antique brass candle holders create a beautifully atmospheric glow.
Our Stylist Says
The Nkuku Kalik candle holder is a versatile piece that works beautifully in both rustic and contemporary interiors, thanks to its antique brass finish. I love how it adds a subtle touch of warmth and vintage charm without feeling overly ornate. It’s great for creating cosy nooks on coffee tables or sideboards, and the larger size makes it a striking centrepiece when grouped with smaller candles or lanterns. Practical styling tips include pairing it with textured ceramics or natural materials to highlight its earthy feel, and positioning it in well-lit areas for contrast to really make the brass pop. This piece can easily elevate minimalist spaces or add character to eclectic settings, making it a good all-rounder for different interior styles.

About Nkuku
The Story of Nkuku
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.
Values and Ethical Commitment
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.
Sustainability at Its Heart
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.
