Kuunsäde Viita Bag

Marimekko’s Kuunsäde shoulder bag is made of bonded cotton canvas with the Viita pattern on the outside and a solid colour on the inside. The bag has vachetta leather details, a magnetic button closure, and an inside pocket. The shoulder strap is 50cm long, and detachable.
Antti Kekki got the idea for the Viita (thicket) pattern from thick and wildly growing plants. The pattern depicts the delicate early summer with its fresh bendy branches and buds about to blossom. Viita was created by combining compositions of different branches and blossoms cut from paper into a larger pattern.
