Another design classic , these bowls were first designed by Maija Isola for the Finnish company Marimekko in 1960. She found something similar in a flea market and was inspired to make these bowls, which, even if you don’t recognise the name, you will almost certainly recognise the design. She made the famous poppy design too, while we’re on the subject, which is also featured in the design classics section.
They come in all sorts of colours these days but my favourites are the turquoise and plum, both of which would look splendid with a generous helping of strawberry ice cream resting inside. But not for long.
