Marimekko Pieni Unikko table runner | Marimekko Outlet

The Pieni Unikko (poppy) pattern in beige, white and black is featured on this runner, which is made of a blend of cotton and linen with a jacquard knit. The edges of the runner have a double-needle finish. Material is printed in Helsinki.

Unikko (poppy) was designed 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 orders and - in protest - created an entire series of floral prints. One of them was Unikko which has become a story of creativity, strength, courage and faith in oneself.
