Q & A
Designer Maija Isola had a dream about running with wild horses in the forest, and was inspired to create this folkloric print. Fittingly named Musta Tamma (Black Mare), it depicts beautiful dark brown horse with beige and turquoise apples on a white backdrop.

Like the Musta Tamma pattern

I like this Marimekko pattern, but I find it most graphically impressive when the horse is repeated several times - for example the version that appears on fabric, or on the tray.

This mug is a nice size for a small cup of coffee or tea. It is comfortable to hold and will stack in other marimekko mugs. The pattern is as cute in person as it is in the picture.
