Marimekko’s Unikko cushion cover is adorned with Maija Isola’s iconic floral pattern in lovely shades of red. The jacquard-woven cover is printed in Helsinki on fabric made from recycled cotton. Please note that textiles containing recycled fibres naturally feature a lively colour and surface, so slight variations may occur between individual covers – and what could be more fitting, after all, as poppies bloom uniquely in nature, too!

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.
