Description
The unique shape and rich antique brass of our handcrafted Nalgonda table lamp makes it a striking addition to any room. The decorative pattern has been carefully applied using traditional tools. The lamp showcases the handmade process with an exposed soldered join. These artisan touches and irregularities add an individual charm to each lamp. | nkuku Nalgonda Lamp | Lamps | Antique Brass | Small
Our Stylist Says
I love this small Nkuku Nalgonda lamp for its warm antique brass finish, which adds a subtle touch of elegance and versatility. It's ideal for creating ambient lighting in both cosy living rooms and relaxed bedrooms, especially on side tables or shelves where it can serve as a gentle glow rather than a main light source. Styling-wise, it pairs beautifully with natural textures and earthy tones, making it well-suited to boho, rustic, or Scandinavian interiors. For a balanced look, keep the surrounding decor simple, and use the brass finish to enhance other metallic accents or complement wooden elements. Practical tip: because it's small, it's perfect for table lamps, but make sure it’s positioned where it won’t be overshadowed or blocked from view to maximise its visual appeal and functional light.
