Marimekko’s Pieni Unikko oven mitten features Maija Isola’s iconic floral pattern, miniaturised by Kristiina Isola to make it even cuter! The padded oven mitt has a convenient hanging loop, and it is suitable for both right- and left-handed home cooks.
The Unikko pattern came about in 1964 after Armi Ratia, the founder of Marimekko, had announced in public that no floral fabrics would be designed at Marimekko. Maija Isola did not accept rules or restrictions and designed, in protest, a complete collection of bold floral patterns: Unikko, a Finnish word that means poppy. Today, Unikko is one of Marimekko's best-known patterns and is recognised worldwide.
