Product Details
The small plate Oiva is made of white stoneware, dishwasher, oven, microwave, and freezer safe. Remove the sticker from the bottom of the product before use. The sticker contains a small amount of metal. Unikko was created by Maija Isola in 1964 and has since become an international design icon. Marimekko's founder, Armi Ratia, believed it was not possible to faithfully capture the true essence of real flowers in print, which is why floral prints had previously been excluded from Marimekko collections. So, Maija Isola designed Unikko to be an abstraction of a flower rather than a photorealistic rendering. Today Unikko is a powerful emblem of joy and creativity, perfectly integrated into the identity of Marimekko design.
