Marimekko celebrates Unikko’s 60th anniversary with a series of special edition products – like these poppy-shaped plates in earthy, harmonious hues! The fun flower plates have a special stamp on the bottom to mark the anniversary. A collector’s dream!
All fans of Finnish design surely recognise Unikko, but have you ever heard the story behind the pattern? Maija Isola created it in 1964 after Armi Ratia, the founder of Marimekko, had publicly announced that no floral fabrics would be printed at the design house. Isola did not accept these rules and restrictions without a fight and, in protest, ended up designing an entire collection of bold floral patterns. One of these designs was Unikko – which quickly became a favourite of Ratia, too. Today, Unikko is one of Marimekko’s best-known and most beloved patterns worldwide.
