Round wool PS 2017 rug by Kate & Joel Booy for Ikea, 2010s

A large round low-pile rug from the IKEA PS 2017 collection, designed by Kate and Joel Booy of Studio Truly Truly. The Australian-born, Rotterdam-based duo were the first Australian designers invited to contribute to IKEA’s collectible PS series, and this rug was their only textile for the collection. The pattern features soft, sweeping movement in indigo, pale grey and ivory, described by the designers as capturing the calm motion of long grass under a light wind. Depth comes from the varied pile heights rather than from surface print, so the drawing shifts subtly with the light and the viewing angle. Woven from 100% wool with a dense 8 mm pile, the rug is naturally soil-repellent, dampens sound underfoot and holds its structure well. Both original labels remain attached: the designers’ signature label and the IKEA product label. This example is new old stock — never used, never laid. Some creasing from rolled storage is visible and will settle within a few days of unrolling. No wear, no stains, no repairs. Condition: Excellent — new old stock, unused, original labels attached. Storage creases only. Materials: Wool. Dimensions: Ø 230 cm, height 0.8 cm (pile), weight 18 kg. Designer: Kate Booy & Joel Booy (Studio Truly Truly). Manufacturer: IKEA of Sweden. Country of manufacture: India. Period: 2010s (2017).
