Description
Nkuku's Kibbi candlesticks are a firm favourite. These chunky, sturdy candlesticks will look beautiful featured on your mantelpiece or window-sill. Handmade in India by artisans using traditional tools and techniques, 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 love the Nkuku Kibibi candle holder for its natural, understated elegance, making it a versatile piece that adds warmth to a variety of interiors. Its simple, sculptural form works particularly well in Scandinavian, boho, or rustic settings, where natural materials and organic shapes are key. Practical styling tips include pairing it with tall, pillar candles for a cosy, inviting feel or grouping it with other natural wood and textured pieces to create a curated tablescape or mantle display. Its neutral tone means it won't compete with more colourful or patterned elements, but instead enhances a calm, considered aesthetic.

About John Lewis
Founded in 1864, John Lewis is a trusted and beloved brand where you can find a diverse range of furniture for every style and budget, alongside finding the perfect item that reflects your personal taste.
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.
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.
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.
