The design of the 2020 seasonal winter mug is based on Tove Jansson’s book Moominland Midwinter. The mug and miniature mugs, a bowl and two spoons were launched at the same time. The original illustrations of this mug have been created with scratchboard technique, and therefore the colouring of the design was kept quite plain. The mug was designed by Tove Slotte. Seasonal stickers have been used in the mugs since 2006.
