Description
We've added this aged-black leather counter-height bar chair to our best-selling Ukari collection. This practical, durable, and comfortable design has a simple, solid iron frame and footrest, and a padded seat and back support. Upholstered in handmade buffalo leather, it is stitched to create three panels which adds a stylish design detail to the piece. Designed to work with a kitchen island, counter or breakfast bar, the Ukari counter chair tucks neatly under a kitchen counter top. The leather upholstery is a by-product and is dyed using vegetable extract and tree bark which means the leather colour will enrich further with time. The Ukari collection includes dining chairs and counter stools in a selection of rich colours including aged-tan, rich green, aged-black and brown leather.

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.
