Marimekko Kalasääski Hand Towel
The Vesi Unikko pattern bath towel is made of organic cotton terry. The pattern’s colors are reversed on the other side of the towel. The year 2024 marks the 60th anniversary of Unikko, one of the most recognized Marimekko print designs in the world. Celebrating the special year, Vesi Unikko is a combination of two Maija Isola patterns. The delicate Vesi (water) pattern, representing Marimekko´s striped heritage, now merges with the large, almost abstract shapes of Unikko.
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.
