IKEA Singapore and The Secret Little Agency turn its allen key into jewellery with ALLËNKI
For decades, the IKEA allen key has lived a quiet, underappreciated life. It arrives with your furniture, does its job, and disappears into a drawer never to be seen again.
Now the hardest working tool from IKEA finally gets its moment in the spotlight. Created in partnership with The Secret Little Agency, meet the ALLËNKI. Taking on a new form, with an iconic new look that will turn heads, as well as screws. Raw, grungy, and unapologetically functional, this new look for the iconic allen key incorporates the visual language of modern aesthetics and contemporary streetwear.
Crafted in the aesthetic language of industrial, new-age jewellery, the allen key now hangs from a chain like a charm, while still working like a charm. It’s not a replica, nor is it just a novelty wearable piece. It’s a real, working allen key – always ready to put your next IKEA product together.
Whether or not the ALLËNKI will be available in stores is still uncertain, but one thing’s for sure: it won’t be tucked away or tossed aside in any home, anymore.
