Description
Marimekko's famous poppy pattern Unikko was born in 1964 in a time when the design house collections featured mostly abstract prints. Designer Maija Isola wanted to create something interesting from this organic theme and designed an entire range of floral prints. Today, the iconic flower represents creativity. These cushion covers are sewn using the whole width of the fabric, and therefore their appearance may vary slightly, making each one unique.
Our Stylist Says
This cushion cover is a fantastic way to introduce bold, graphic pattern into a variety of interiors. I love how the classic black and white colour scheme makes it versatile, working well with neutral tones or adding contrast in more colourful schemes. It’s particularly effective in minimalist or Scandinavian-inspired spaces where its striking print can become a focal point, but it can also add a touch of personality to eclectically styled rooms. For styling tips, try pairing it with textured throws or softer cushions to balance the bold print, and consider placing it on a sleek, modern sofa or bed to let the pattern stand out. This piece offers both visual interest and practicality, making it a great artist-inspired accent in any living area.

About John Lewis
Founded in 1864, John Lewis is a trusted and beloved brand where you can find a diverse range of furniture for every style and budget, alongside finding the perfect item that reflects your personal taste.
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
