Marimekko Oiva / Unikko Breakfast Set 2-piece Mug + Plate White, Black
This round, lightweight tray is made from laminated birch plywood and features the classic Räsymatto (patchwork) pattern in black and white. The Räsymatto pattern was inspired by allotment gardening and ties in with current themes such as sustainable living and the joy of handwork. Allotment gardens with their flower and vegetable beds represent urban nature at its best. A patchwork quilt on the floor of an allotment cottage tells its own living story. The tray has a diameter of 31 cm.
It started with a dress. In the 1950s, Marimekko’s trail-blazing founder Armi Ratia created the brand’s very first pieces; a vividly printed range of liberating dresses that reflected her confident spirit. Contrary to the traditional attire of the time, Ratia’s designs embraced looser silhouettes, bold, colourful prints and a free-spirited sensibility made to empower women. This legacy still lives on today, and Marimekko’s eye-catching range of printed pieces now extends to accessories, homewares, ceramics and more. Each piece is expertly printed in the brand’s Helsinki printing factory and the Finnish company’s vibrant motifs are instantly recognisable – give a special friend or loved one a stylish surprise with a playful printed tote bag, chic mug or colourful set of notecards.
