Two trailblazers, Marimekko and the Finnish jewelry company Kalevala Koru, have always pushed boundaries at the intersection of fashion, design and art. To celebrate the Unikko pattern’s 60th anniversary, our rich artistic heritages and shared belief in craftsmanship come together in a limited-edition jewelry collection.
Marimekko and Kalevala’s limited-edition collaboration collection includes a wide assortment of Unikko-themed jewelry from rings and necklaces to a statement brooch and a modern ear cuff. The products are made from recycled silver at Kalevala Koru’s factory in Helsinki, Finland and their light weight makes wearing the pieces pleasant throughout the day.
“Our collaboration with Kalevala has been a very inspiring experience. Unikko is an iconic pattern, and it has been in many different forms and different places throughout the years. So, it was a joy to discover how unique, surprising, and even sculptural Unikko became through Kalevala’s design language and craftsmanship. I believe that our customers will be excited about the versatile assortment and will find their own favorites,” says Emmakaisa Kirves, Design Director, Ready-to-Wear and Bags & Accessories at Marimekko.
The Kalevala x Marimekko limited-edition collaboration collection is available at selected Marimekko stores and online store, Kalevala’s stores and online store as well as Kalevala’s retailers starting from 1 October, 2024.
