Moomin mug, Moomin's day 2021

Arabia’s Moomin Day 2021 mug is a continuation of the original Moomin’s Day mug, which was released on Tove Jansson's birthday on 9.8.2018. The illustration of the Moomin's Day 2021 mug is based on the illustrations of Tove Jansson’s Magic Winter novel from 1957 and the songbook Visor från Mumindalen from 1993. Moomin's Day 2021 mug features Moomintroll and Moominmamma sitting on a bridge railing waiting for Snufkin, who is returning to Moominvalley after the winter.

The first pieces of Arabia’s Moomin tableware came out already in the 1950s, and the large-scale production began in 1990. All the illustrations are done by Tove Slotte who draws inspiration from the original drawings by Tove Jansson. The form of the collection comes from Arabia’s timeless, ceramic Teema tableware designed by Kaj Franck.

Moomin Arabia is a collection of Moomin products by Arabia, one of Finland's most renowned brands. The residents of Moominvalley first appeared as ceramic designs in the 1950s when artist Tove Jansson created Moomin-themed dishes and her mother, Signe "Ham" Hammarsten Jansson, crafted ceramic Moomin figures. In the 1990s, Moomin mugs designed by illustrator Tove Slotte quickly became favourites among both children and adults. Since then, Moomin Arabia products have been cherished as delightful everyday items and valuable collectibles worldwide. Today, the collection includes not only dishware but also textiles.
