We introduce Nd₃Sb₃Mg₂O₁₄ with ideal kagome lattices of neodymium ions in ABC stacking. Thermodynamic measurements show a Curie-Weiss temperature of Θ_CW = – 0.12 K, a Nd³⁺ spin-

\frac{1}{2}

Kramers doublet ground state, and a second-order phase transition at T_N = 0.56 (2) K. Neutron scattering reveals noncoplanar scalar chiral k = 0 magnetic order with a correlation length exceeding 400 Å = 55a and an ordered moment of 1.79 (5) μ_B. Furthermore, this order includes a canted ferromagnetic component perpendicular to the kagome planes favored by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions.
