The loveliest textiles of the Christmas season
Statement fabric for seasonal interiors
The colorful Talvipalatsi fabric is an eye-catcher in Christmas interiors. Designed by Aino-Maija Metsola for Marimekko, this pattern was influenced by Arabic culture and strong colors. Despite this, the design fits beautifully with the Finnish spirit of Marimekko. Transform the atmosphere in your home at a single stroke, by using the fabric to make a fabulous tablecloth, or even long curtains.
