Marimekko's Alku coffee cups are adorned with a dotted pattern by Maija Louekari. The hand-painted motif gives the brown stoneware coffee cups a charismatic finish, making each piece truly unique. The Alku cups are part of Sami Ruotsalainen’s clean-lined Oiva tableware collection that suits both casual and festive settings.
Originally introduced in 2019, Alku (”the beginning”) and Eläköön elämä (”salute to life”) patterns celebrate the 10th anniversary of two Marimekko classics, Maija Louekari’s Siirtolapuutarha collection and Sami Ruotsalainen’s Oiva tableware range. The dotted Alku depicts the seeds of the flowers on the Eläköön elämä pattern.
