I absolutely love Finnish design (and Scandinavian design in general). I certainly wouldn't have minded visiting "your" store every few weeks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/who-wants-to-win-one-of-four-marimekko-umbrellas#post-447158 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 16:04:08 +0000 Suz 447158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In the 80s I worked for a family owned business in Toronto that imported and sold Finnish designs. They had two stores; one for fashion and one for furniture and housewares. I worked in the clothing store, where we sold Marimekko and Vuokko, primarily, with a few other designers thrown in. Amazing stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/who-wants-to-win-one-of-four-marimekko-umbrellas#post-447151 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:58:35 +0000 Inge 447151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rita: I know, they all are fun;-)<br /> The raindrop pattern is making me smile too, Heleen!</p> <p>Suz: please tell us more about that Finnish retailer? Was it a company in the clothing sector? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/who-wants-to-win-one-of-four-marimekko-umbrellas#post-447141 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:44:12 +0000 Suz 447141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SO disappointed not to be able to enter. LOVE those lovely umbrellas. And they bring up memories of working for a Finnish retailer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/who-wants-to-win-one-of-four-marimekko-umbrellas#post-447114 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:18:36 +0000 HeleenH 447114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unfortunately only for US residents.... I like the red flowers (Kiku) and the raindrops (pisaroi) best, with Unikko 3rd and Kivet last because that one is most 'normal'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/who-wants-to-win-one-of-four-marimekko-umbrellas#post-447113 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 15:13:45 +0000 modgrl 447113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is impossible to choose.
