Description
The Verkala statement ceramic vases are the ultimate in styling objet. Each traditionally inspired shape showcases elegant contours enhanced and defined by a dark matt black finish. The rough texture is created using a crackle glaze finish that adds to the drama of this eye-catching piece. Often, the finishing touch to an interior, decorative objet is a great way to add interest to your home, layering different shapes and finishes together. The Verkala collection of vases is decorative only and cannot be used to hold water.
Our Stylist Says
The Nkuku Varkala Ceramic Vase in black offers a sleek, minimalist aesthetic that works particularly well in modern and contemporary interiors. Its muted tone and simple form make it versatile, perfect for adding subtle texture and interest to sideboards, shelves, or dining tables. I love styling this small vase with dried flowers or minimalist greenery to create a refined, understated arrangement. It also lends itself well to eclectic spaces when paired with textured or natural materials, like wood or rattan. For practical styling tips, keep the décor balanced by pairing it with other neutral accessories, and focus on symmetry or asymmetry depending on your interior's vibe. Its understated elegance makes it a nifty choice for those looking to add a touch of Scandinavian or rustic charm without overpowering the rest of the room.

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.
