Nkuku Baba Vase Recycled Green Glass Lamp Base
At Kayu Home, we offer a wide range of attractive lighting options designed to enhance your home with a warm and cosy glow. From lights and lanterns made from recycled materials to green glass lamp bases and fabric shades, our selection has the perfect lighting for all homes and interiors.
Glass has long been used in lighting thanks to its soft, reflective qualities, and when combined with a rich green tone, it creates lamp bases with a wonderful light and natural appearance. Each lamp base is made using recycled glass, giving a second life to a material that would otherwise go to waste.
Recycled glass has a particular appeal as it carries slight imperfections: tiny bubbles, ripples or variations in tone that give every lamp a distinct look. The green of the glass is subtle, often with a hint of grey or olive, and complements most rooms without standing out. It works well with both warm and cool colours, making it easy to pair with furniture, soft furnishings and other lighting.
Our green glass lamp bases are ideal for placing on a side table, console or bedside. They have a weight to them that keeps them steady, and the smooth glass surface reflects natural light during the day. At night, once lit, they take on a new appearance as the glow from the shade above becomes softer, with a faint wash of green echoing from the base below.
Recycled Lamps and Lighting
Because we work with recycled materials, every green glass lamp base is slightly different. Shapes may vary from gently rounded to more angular designs, and finishes range from matte to glossy, depending on the batch. The shades and fittings are sourced to complement the look, but you can easily replace them to suit your own style.
Choosing a recycled lamp is a simple way to support more sustainable ways of living. As with our reclaimed wood furniture and vintage pieces, our lighting collection is shaped by the same principles: honest materials, skilled craftsmanship, and a focus on longevity. We believe that the things we live with should feel made to last, not designed to be replaced.
Most of our lamp bases are made in small workshops using traditional glass-blowing techniques. The glass is collected, cleaned, melted down and shaped by hand before being cooled and finished. The process is slow and precise, which gives each piece a distinct feel and depth.

Discover Our Range of Lamp Bases
Choosing the right lighting for your home is an effective way to create the atmosphere you want; whether you’d like to create a welcoming feeling of warmth or to add much needed brightness to a dark corner.
You’ll find our current selection of green glass lamp bases and recycled lamps on our website and in our West Yorkshire showroom, where we display an ever-changing collection alongside our reclaimed wood furniture and vintage finds.
