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 the Nkuku Tembesi planter for its natural, earthy vibe that adds warmth to a variety of interiors. Its understated design and warm, textured finish make it versatile, working well in both contemporary and rustic spaces. It’s perfect for creating a relaxed, organic feel on shelves, mantels, or coffee tables. For styling tips, consider pairing it with lush green foliage or trailing plants to soften its robust shape, and combine it with other natural materials like wood or rattan for a cohesive look. Its size makes it ideal for adding a pop of greenery without overwhelming the space, making it a great choice for both small apartments and larger open-plan rooms.

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.
