Description
Marimekko’s Pieni Unikko cushion cover features Maija Isola’s iconic floral pattern, this time in warm red hues. The cushion cover is made of cotton. The cushion cover is printed in Helsinki, Finland, on unbleached cotton fabric, with narrow edging providing a refined finishing touch.
The instantly recognizable Unikko pattern came about in 1964 after Armi Ratia, the founder of Marimekko, had announced in public that no floral fabrics would be made at Marimekko. However, textile designer Maija Isola was not one for rules or restrictions – in protest, she designed a complete collection of bold floral patterns. One of them was named Unikko, Finnish for “poppy”, and it quickly became a favourite of Ratia, as well. Today, Unikko is one of Marimekko’s best-known patterns, and it adorns a variety of objects from fabrics and bed linen to Sami Ruotsalainen’s clean-lined Oiva tableware collection.
