Marimekko's Unikko Kollaasi oven mitten is brought to life with a graphic collage of Maija Isola's iconic poppy pattern. Featuring a special label to mark the 60th anniversary of Unikko, this padded oven mitt features a handy hanging loop and is suitable for both right and left-handed chefs. The fabric is printed in Helsinki, Finland, on a partly recycled, unbleached cotton-linen blend – thanks to the unique collage, each piece is one of a kind.

All fans of Finnish design surely recognize Unikko, but have you ever heard the story behind the pattern? Maija Isola created it in 1964 after Armi Ratia, the founder of Marimekko, had publicly announced that no floral fabrics would be printed at the design house. Isola did not accept these rules and restrictions without a fight and, in protest, ended up designing an entire collection of bold floral patterns. One of these designs was Unikko – which quickly became a favorite of Ratia, too. Today, Unikko is one of Marimekko's best-known and most beloved patterns worldwide.
