“Nikau is the name of the only indigenous palm tree in New Zealand. It has a large bulb at the top of its trunk and its leaves overlap in similar patterns. It was traditionally used for thatching and weaving, much like the coconut palm. But the early Maori arrivals were disappointed to see no coconuts on it, which is a possible source of the name: “no nuts!” ”

The stunning Nikau pendant is another great instalment to Trubridge's Seed System range. These incredible pieces have all been inspired by New Zealand's vast natural beauty. To ensure minimal impact on the environment, Trubridge has not only constructed the Seed System pendants with bamboo ply with avoidance of chemical finishes; but through market research has determined that reducing freight volume through developing Kitsets drastically reduces the company's environmental footprint.
This Pendant is flat packed for a reduced environmental footprint. Assembly time requires 120 mins. Please see Assembly Video in the specification table.
