Description
The nkuku Tembesi planter in antique brass adds a pop of colour and warmth to your home interior with its golden hues. It's handcrafted in India by skilled artisans using age-old methods and traditional tools, and is finished with a beautiful design that is also etched by hand. Leave it to stand alone or mix with different sizes, plants and foliage to create an urban jungle at home.
Our Stylist Says
I love this one for its simple yet refined aesthetic; the warm, neutral tones of the planter make it easy to incorporate into various interiors. It works particularly well in modern, Scandinavian, or boho styles where natural textures and earthy hues are key. Practical styling tips include pairing it with leafy houseplants like ferns or peace lilies to add a touch of greenery to your space, or using it as a standalone feature on a neutral shelf or side table. Its versatile size makes it suitable for both small corners and larger statement setups, offering a timeless look that elevates any room without overpowering it.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
