Description

Marimekko's Piccolo kitchen towel set features a striped pattern designed by Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi in 1953, with green and pink stripes painted in free brush strokes. The pattern is best known for the legendary Jokapoika shirt, one of Marimekko's most famous products. 

Made from a partially recycled cotton-linen blend, the tea towels are ideal for drying hands or dishes and covering up that batch of cinnamon roll dough left to rise. Printed in Helsinki, the towels are finished with hanging loops and printed text along the long edges.

Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi

Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi (b. 1930) is a Finnish textile designer. Originally trained as a ceramist, she studied at the Institute of Industrial Arts in the ceramics department in Helsinki from 1948 to 1952 and worked for Arabia from 1952 to 1953. In 1953, Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi joined Marimekko to design clothing and printed fabrics for clothing and interior decoration.

In the same year she married the famous Finnish designer Antti Nurmesniemi. Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi had a major impact on the formation of Marimekko’s original line of fashions and the development of its industrial production. The fabrics she created were something completely new and avant-garde in the 1950s in Finland. In 1953, she designed the striped Piccolo fabric, and from it the Jokapoika shirt in 1956 – the Jokapoika shirt is Marimekko’s oldest classic item in continuous production. Another beautiful print from Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi is Pirput parput, very popular and decorating a variety of objects. Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi worked at Marimekko until 1960.
