Piccolo

This pillow cover features the Piccolo pattern, which is printed running in two directions. The fabric is printed in Helsinki. The cover has a concealed zipper on one side.

The cover is made of a cotton and linen blend, which contains 48% recycled cotton, 31% organic cotton, and 21% 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 shirt made from the fabric appeared in stores and on the streets – for good, it seems.
