Marimekko Unikko Orange Red Designer Rug
Maija Isola’s Unikko print shook the design world in 1964 with its oversized pop-art poppies, a cheerful rebellion against the era’s strict patterns. This hand-tufted wool rug captures that same optimism in vivid orange-red blooms scattered across a warm oatmeal ground, each dark centre and slim charcoal stem hand carved for crisp definition. The result is a joyful statement piece that turns everyday floors into a gallery of Finnish creativity.
