ikea ps maskros pendant lightby brett |
Remember that mysterious excursion to Sweden and Denmark I’ve been blathering on about for the last three months? And the secret sneak-peek IKEA granted me while at IKEA’s world HQ in Almhult?
Well, the secret’s finally out…
The Maskros pendant lamp is the unquestionable star of IKEA’s new PS Collection - a series of stunning new products from the Swedish design powerhouse that are hitting select IKEA locations across Canada (Boucherville, QC; Etobicoke, ON; Edmonton; and Coquitlam, BC) this month.
This mammoth 31.5″ beauty is already the best-selling piece in the new PS Collection in Europe (where it was launched last February), and it’s easy to see why. Designer Marcus Arvonen looked to dandelions for inspiration for this destined-for-the-dining-room pendant, and the radiating white starbursts filter the light in truly spectacular ways. I’ve seen this installed in a plain, white-box room, and once this pendant is switched on, the light casts patterns on the walls, creating the effect of crazy custom wallpaper… It’s absolutely fascinating.
Price: $100 (For reals! Can you BELIEVE it?!?)
Available at: select IKEA locations (see above), 866-866-4532

Love this light fixture. I will request it at the Dale City, VA location. All Ikea’s would benefit by having it in-stock.
Great tip!

i tried to get this at etobicoke store and they never heard of it. Also this item isn’t on their website.
Hi Carole,
I just called the Etobicoke store myself, and it turns out they did have the Maskros in stock, but it’s already sold out. (More should be coming…)
Let’s keep our fingers crossed that the Maskros will become part of the regular IKEA range - they’ve done this with the top-selling items in PS Collections of the past - and made available at all locations as “core product”.
Thanks for your comment!
