Soft Gratha Unikko shoulder bag, black leather
Description
Marimekko’s Soft Gratha Unikko shoulder bag is made from soft nappa leather and quilted with Maija Isola’s iconic floral print. The adjustable strap is made from recycled polyamide and covered in Unikko flowers, and it comes off entirely, which turns the bag into an envelope clutch whenever the occasion calls for one. The Soft Gratha Unikko shoulder bag closes with a zip finished with a single Unikko flower as its pull. Inside, the cotton lining hides a zipped pocket for whatever you’d rather keep to yourself.
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.
