Piccolo

This runner features the Piccolo pattern, which is printed in Helsinki. The pattern is printed running in two directions to give the appearance of a sewn edge.

The runner is made of a cotton and linen blend. The product contains 46% recycled cotton and 21% recycled linen.

Unbleached fabrics, as well as fabrics containing recycled fibers, have a natural lively color and surface where small different colored areas may appear. There may be differences between products regarding this feature.

In 1953, the very year she joined Marimekko, Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi created Piccolo, a striped fabric pattern painted with vivid brushstrokes. Three years later, the Jokapoika (every boy) shirt made from the fabric appeared in stores and the streets – for good, it seems.
