The printed acrylic-coated cotton fabric features the Pieni Unikko pattern and a stain repellent acrylic finish on the reverse side of the fabric. Thanks to the protective finish, the fabric is easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth. Printed in Helsinki.

Unikko (poppy) was born 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 gorgeous floral prints. One of them was Unikko which has become a story of creativity, strength, courage and faith in oneself.
