FEATURING THE POTTERY COLLECTION FROM Helen Levi

X Prettypegs

Together with NYC-based potter Helen Levi, Swedish company Prettypegs is now launching a limited collection of ceramic knobs to give your IKEA furniture a one-of-a-kind look. In just minutes, your outdated IKEA cabinet such as Besta, Metod, or Ivar will transform into a modern, high end piece.

Handmade from tinted clay, these ribbed and unglazed knobs have a super tactile texture and were inspired by one of Helen’s previous designs which she calls “Corduroy” where clay pieces are made using an extruder, - basically a giant pasta maker - that pushes clay through a shaped die.

“Like most people, I have purchased many IKEA pieces over the years. In the past I’ve bought vintage knobs to make them more special because I didn’t know about Prettypegs - I love that people can make an affordable upgrade to their furniture to have more design in their home”, says Helen Levi and continues, “Making knobs felt like a natural extension of my work since I love creating something that is part of people’s everyday life.”

The Pottery Collection is limited and consists of two knobs; Corduroy Pin and Corduroy Knob, as well as a longer handle called the Corduroy Bar. They all come in the colors Terracotta, Sand, Dove Blue, and Sage Green, and you can either choose to go for a more subtle look with knobs in the same model and color - or mix and match models and colors all together for a more personal look.

“We’re always looking for new inspiring ways for people to personalize IKEA furniture. I had admired Helen’s work on Instagram for a while and since we were interested in adding ceramics to our offer, I simply reached out asking if she wanted to design some ceramic knobs together with us, which I’m super happy she did!”, says Jana Cagin, founder and of Prettypegs. Helen Levi: “Making knobs felt like a natural extension of my work since I love creating something that is part of people’s everyday life.”
