Description

Klaus Haapaniemi’s Black Swan cushion cover features a graceful black swan in a mystic, red milieu with towering fir trees and a blazing meteor in the sky. What catches the eye first is the bird’s beautiful, decorative plumage. The cushion cover is printed on soft cotton velvet and framed by black and white geometric motifs.

Illustrator and designer Klaus Haapaniemi has collaborated with designer Mia Wallenius to create a unique range of home and fashion textiles inspired by the Nordic nature and Finnish folklore. The beautiful patterns follow traditional decorative arts but their style and approach are modern. The finest natural materials combined with detailed patterns create a truly luxurious collection.
