Price History
Description
The recycled glass and solid marble, Sikkim tealight holder has an applealingly fresh and simple aesthetic. The glass is mouth blown into this elegant shape and hammered to create a subtle ripple affect. The lip of the glass is rolled and smooth. The clear glass holders nests in the solid grey marble base, which is rich with varied tones that are so unique to marble. The two materials marry efforltessly together and combine to crate a tea light that works as well inside as it doesn outside in an alfresco scene. Although we encourage using the tealight outside we do not recommend leaving it outside exposed to the elements.
Our Stylist Says
This candle holder is a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and rustic interiors, thanks to its combination of marble and recycled glass. I love its understated elegance and the way it invites a soft glow without overpowering a space. For practical styling, try placing it on a side table or mantle alongside other natural materials like wood or greenery to create a calm, cohesive look. It’s perfect for adding a touch of warmth to understated schemes, or as a simple centrepiece on a dining or coffee table, especially when you want to introduce subtle charm without fuss.

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.
