Good Design Since 2008
A stoneware tealight holder in the shape of Maija Isola's iconic Unikko pattern. It can also be used for holding trinkets.
A young Maija Isola designed this abstracted pattern of poppies in 1964 after being told that Marimekko would never produce a floral print. Over many decades and countless color combinations, Unikko remains Marimekko’s most enduring pattern. This product celebrates the 60th anniversary of the Unikko pattern and it features the embossed anniversary stamp on the bottom. Comes packaged in a gift box with tealight. Hand washing recommended.
Founded in 1951 by visionary Finnish textile designer Armi Raitia and her husband, Viljo, Marimekko grew from a small textile-printing firm into an international phenomenon. From its beginnings as a textile design company, Marimekko (meaning “Mary’s dress”) branched out into everything from toys to dinnerware to architecture, becoming something of a lifestyle brand in the 1960s and 70s. The company’s outstanding designers revolutionized modern printed fabrics and fashion. Today the company continues to collaborate with young artists, encouraging experimentation. The result is spirited, non-traditional patterns and vivid colors.
