The Silmälasi Kukkaro purse is made of cotton in the Piccolo pattern, which is printed in Helsinki. The slim rectangular purse has a metallic frame that is easy to snap open and shut.
50% of the cotton used in this product is recycled.
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 (every boy) shirt made from the fabric appeared in stores and the streets – for good, it seems.
