Mug Fillyjonk was in production from 2004 to 2013. The next mug picturing Fillyjonk was not released until 2020. In the light brown mug Fillyjonk is pictured as it’s typical self: A little bossy and demanding. The artwork in the back of the mug is from Tove Jansson’s novel The Fillyjonk Who Believed in Disasters and Tales from Moominvalley. Tove Slotte also chose images from Tove Jansson’s comic #6 Moominmamma’s Maid.
