Price History
Description
The elegant contours of our smaller Sia lantern are complemented by its antique black metal finish. Designed with the same striking frame and clear glass panels, it-s perfectly sized for a single tealight, casting a soft, atmospheric glow in any corner of the home.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lantern for its clean, modern silhouette and versatile black frame. It works well in both contemporary and rustic interiors, adding a sophisticated touch without feeling overly formal. Its sizeable shape makes it ideal for creating a cosy evening atmosphere on consoles, dining tables, or sideboards. For styling, pair it with smaller candles or clusters of foliage to enhance its visual appeal, and consider using it with a pillar candle for maximum impact. Its size and shape lend themselves well to layering with other candlesticks or lanterns to create a curated, inviting vignette. Overall, it’s a practical yet stylish piece that offers plenty of scope for personalisation.

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.
