Maija Isola's (1927-2001) remarkable career as a textile designer began at Printex, Marimekko's predecessor, in 1949 and lasted 38 years. She designed more than 500 fabric patterns, which cover an amazingly diverse range of motifs and design techniques.
She drew inspiration for her work from traditional folk art and modern visual art alike, from nature and her countless trips around the world. Her designs, such as Kivet (stones), Unikko (poppy) and Kaivo (well), continue to be an essential part of Marimekko's collections.
Unikko's duvet covers and pillow cases are made of cotton and have a central opening at the bottom hem. Shrinkage max. 5%. Follow the washing temperature given. Wash before use. 100% cotton.
Unikko (poppy) was born in 1964 after Armi Ratia, Marimekko's founder, had announced that Marimekko would never print a flower pattern. Maija Isola refused to obey Armi's order and - in protest - created an entire serie of gorgeous floral prints. One of them was Unikko which has become a story of creativity, strength, courage and faith in oneself.
