This set of two Marimekko rare original vintage 1960's Mid Century Scandinavian Modern square cotton throw pillows are an incredibly special and unique set to add to your collection. The 2 square shaped throw pillows are made in the 1960's of original vintage Marimekko 100% cotton fabric. They are in a gorgeous vibrant multi tone blue, violet, and indigo palette with yellow, orange, and green accents, in complimentary beautiful Modernist Abstract and floral design pattern prints.
The original vintage Marimekko fabric pillows were purchases new at the iconic famous " Design Research " store in New York City in the 1960's, the exclusive U.S. representative of Marimekko clothing and textiles from 1959 to 1976.
Marimekko is a Finnish home furnishings, textiles, and fashion company based in Helsinki. Founded in 1951, it made important contributions to the world of fashion in the 1960's. It is particularly noted for its brightly colored Modernist style printed fabrics used both in garments and home furnishings. Two designers in particular, Vuokko Nurmesniemi with bold stripes, and Maija Isola with large flower prints, created hundreds of distinctive patterns and helped make the Marimekko brand products coveted by design aficionados, and a household name across the world.
The 2 original vintage Marimekko throw pillows each measure 14" W X 14" H X 3 1/2" D ( there is slight variation in the size of each pillow ). They feature a zipper placket detail with a feather filled pillow insert inside the pillow cover.
They are in excellent vintage condition consistent with age, and light signs of handling. There are slight subtle variations inherent to the fabric. They have been very well cared for by a single owner. Please see photos for condition reference. They are now being offered here for an excellent price. less
