Description
This lamp features a sculptural, organic form with a softly textured surface created through a traditional cast metal process. The grooves add depth and character, enhancing its tactile appeal. The base is finished in antique brass, offering a warm, subtle reflection of the light above. A striking piece that brings both texture and atmosphere to any setting.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lamp for adding a touch of warm, industrial charm to a variety of interiors. Its antique brass finish and cast aluminium construction give it a stylish, timeless appeal that works particularly well in contemporary, vintage, or eclectic schemes. It’s versatile enough to sit on a bedside table, a sideboard, or in a cosy reading nook. Practical styling tips include pairing it with textured fabrics and earthy colours to emphasise its warm tones, or placing it alongside other brass accents for a cohesive look. The taupe lampshade also masks the bulb nicely for a softer, more ambient glow-perfect for creating a relaxed atmosphere.

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.
