The Friends Forever mug brings back childhood memories: tree-climbing and adventures with lifelong friends. Snufkin is back in Moominvalley. Moomintroll cannot wait to meet him. Moomintroll and Little My follow a trail of clues Snufkin has hidden. They lead to him perched in a tree.
The mug was released in 2025 as part of Arabia’s Moomin 80th anniversary collection. The design is based on Tove Jansson’s Moomin comic strip from 1958.
Moomin Classics series features each character of the Moominvalley emphasizing each one’s own typical traits. The artwork present the characters from the front and behind and tells the story of that specific character. Arabia’s Moomins are turned from stories to ceramic illustrations by designer Tove Slotte. She has been drawing Moomins onto Arabia items since the beginning of the 1990s. The designer draws inspiration from Tove Jansson’s original illustrations, which she adapts to ceramic shapes. The Moomins have always been close to Tove Slotte’s heart. She articulated the significance of the Moomins nicely when she said: I think everyone should enjoy a little dose of Moomin philosophy every day.
