Have loved Marimekko designs since I went to the Univ of Stockholm in 1971 and found the Marimekko store on Kungsgatan the main shopping street, as I wanted to make wall hangings for my dorm room. I saw the Pepe fabric and had to buy it along with some other designs. The store became my favorite haunt and was my first taste of super Scandinavian design!! The Pepe tray is large, easy to clean and use as it is made of birch plywood and laminated so it is great for entertaining and it entertains me every night at dinner when I look at it on display - a lovely piece of artwork sparking great memories for me!!!
Pros
Easy to wipe clean and durable as they are made in Sweden of birch plywood and designed in Finland. Great buy for sure!

Everything is good about the tray except……..the eyes of the birds make the one on the left look surprised…that’s okay; but the way the eyes of the one on the left are painted make it look angry! I bought this to use for Thanksgiving because of all the children who will be there……and now I can not use it…….Very Disappointing!
