Oiva / Unikko

The Oiva teapot is made of white stoneware, and it features the white-on-white Unikko pattern. The teapot has a ceramic strainer and a wooden handle and peg on the lid made of certified rubber wood. Because of the wooden details, we recommend washing the teapot by hand.

The product is packed in the Marimekko Logo pattern box.

Unikko was created by Maija Isola in 1964 and has since become an international icon of print design. The founder of Marimekko, Armi Ratia, believed that it was not possible to faithfully capture the true essence of real flowers in print, which is why floral prints were earlier excluded from Marimekko collections. So, Maija Isola designed Unikko to be an abstraction of a flower rather than a photorealistic rendition. Today, Unikko is a powerful emblem of joy and creativity, seamlessly integrated into Marimekko´s design identity.
