marimekko marvels
categories: drinkware, fabulous finds, fabulous gift ideas, linens and textiles
I made a visit to the marimekko website yesterday and was so excited to see their new fall collection! As expected, they have tons of amazing and unique new textiles by extremely talented designers, and I was particularly interested in some fantastic kitchen and tabletop product designs! Favorites pictured here: black and white mugs and latte cups from popular classic patterns, the new chocolate and turquoise Aukusti collection featuring Erja Hirvi’s Karelian-inspired Elokuu pattern composed of diamond-tailed birds and plants, and the oh-so-modern Fokus collection by Anna Danielsson, available in a bright red/white motif or the always classic black and white.
Marimekko is available throughout the UK, but I’ve had a hard time locating many of their products in the U.S. Thank goodness Holly was kind enough to offer this tip on locating US vendors/shipping info: Email josie at kiitos.marimekko@verizon.net. Thanks, Holly!

I worked at C & B for 15 yrs and they do have a selection of Marimekko items. But I have to say going to one of the Marimekko stores in Finland last year was so great. I ended up purchasing mechandise for half of my family and it wasn’t cheap but it is stuff you can’t find in the US.
