Another standout this season is the Oko giant bauble, hand-blown from recycled glass and available in a range of muted, heritage-inspired tones. Its generous size and irregular, mottled finish make it perfect for adding depth and drama to an interior, whether hung from the tree, fireplace or styled as part of a centrepiece.
This year, the Christmas table celebrates the balance of tradition and refined simplicity. Natural textures, warm brass accents, and flickering candlelight come together to create an inviting and elegant setting. New ribbed glassware sits beautifully alongside the new Juniper Drop hand-painted tableware, each piece carefully crafted to bring tactile elegance and interest to the table. Tied baubles and antique brass charms on the back of chairs complete the look, offering subtle festive touches that feel relaxed and nostalgic.
Entertaining is elevated with Nkuku’s range of artisan glassware in mixed hues and finishes, alongside statement aged-brass wine buckets and cake stands that lend a sense of occasion without formality. This effortless approach to styling ensures every gathering from intimate dinners to lively cocktail parties feels special.
For the first time, Nkuku introduces a home fragrance collection. Inspired by the scents of the season, two bespoke fragrances including Mandarin & Clove, and Juniper & Fir offer a warm, sensory welcome. Each scent is available as a candle or diffuser, presented in hand-blown recycled glass vessels designed to be repurposed. The candles are hand-poured in the UK using a sustainable blend of European soy wax and natural beeswax, with pure cotton wicks. These exclusive fragrances, made using natural essential oils, evoke treasured festive memories and bring a sense of calm and comfort to the home.
Poppy Munson, Product Developer at Nkuku, says:
"This season at Nkuku, we’ve created a truly festive collection that celebrates timeless craft and skilled artisans. As always, every piece is thoughtfully designed, using recycled, reclaimed or natural elements that bring character and charm to the home.
We’re especially excited to introduce our first seasonal scent stories, an immersive, nostalgic layer to festive decorating that engages all the senses. Beyond the Christmas collection, our Autumn/Winter offering is designed to help create a warm and welcoming home from soft, textural bed linen for cosy guest rooms to hand-crafted glassware and serveware that ensure your New Year gatherings are as memorable as they are beautiful."
The Nkuku Christmas collection will launch in September and will be available to purchase via nkuku.com.
