Our Stylist Says
I love this Nkuku Malana recycled glass candle holder for its organic shape and warm, smoky brown hue, which adds a touch of earthy elegance to any space. Its sizeable form makes it ideal as a centrepiece on dining tables or placed on a mantel for subtle ambient lighting. It works particularly well in rustic, bohemian, or Scandinavian-inspired interiors, where natural materials and muted tones are key. Practical styling tips include pairing it with smaller glass or ceramic candle holders for layered dimension, or combining it with dried botanicals for a seasonal display. Its colour and scale create a cosy, inviting atmosphere, making it a versatile piece for both everyday use and special occasions.

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.
