Our Stylist Says
I really rate this Tamba wire-and-wood shelf for its blend of industrial edge and natural warmth - the black metal grid keeps things feeling light, while the reclaimed teak shelf adds texture. It sits perfectly in a kitchen for mugs and utensils (use the hooks for tea towels or hanging mugs), or in a hallway to corral keys, hats and a couple of wicker baskets on the lower shelf.
Styling-wise, mix in some potted herbs or trailing plants on the upper tier, and use uniform glass jars or colour-coordinated ceramics to keep the wire background looking tidy. It works equally well in urban lofts, Scandi-inspired spaces or even a cosy cottage if you balance the metal with soft linens and woven accents.

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.
