I am thrilled to have two Ukkospilvi fabrics by the 82 year oldFujiwo Ishimoto. He has retired from Marimekko after50 years and returned to Japan. His brush strokes on these fabrics are powerful.It’s exciting feel the thunder clouds. On the pale peach and dark bluefabric the energy is strong and minimal.

Thank you FinnStyle for making these treasures available.
