The cup is microwave, oven, freezer and dishwasher safe, practical for everyday use.

Fun new Unikko design - the Little One
December 19, 2024
There were many interesting designs to mark the the 60th anniversary of the Marimekko Unikko (Poppy). The Pikkuinen Unikko (The Little One) was one of my favorite.
