Arabia and their designer Tove Slotte created a colourful design for Tove’s Jubilee series to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of the artist and creator of Moomins, Tove Jansson. In addition to the mug there are three different sized jars in the jubilee series. Tove Slotte combined elements of different original illustrations. The original artwork is found in Tove Jansson’s comic strip #18 Moomin and the Golden Tail. The main inspiration for the design came from Tove Jansson’s book The Dangerous Journey. There’s also a special bottom stamp in each jar; the logo of Tove 100 jubilee year.

Mummitrollet
Moomintroll is a lovable and happy creature, and he longs for adventure. He is always at the heart of the event. He cares for his friends very much, and wants everyone around him to be happy. Just like the other Moomins, Moomintroll loves the sea. Moomintroll is a great combination of his parents: He is brave and adventurous like Moominpappa, as well as kind and compassionate like Moominmamma. The best place in the world for Moomintroll is Moominvalley, and he never fails to find an adventure. His fearlessness and longing for adventure sometimes carry him out of the Valley. Moomintroll is a roundish character, and he has a tussle at the end of his tail. In spite of his young age, Moomintroll has experienced the highs and lows of romance with his girlfriend Snorkmaiden. Moomintroll first appeared in Tove Jansson’s novel The Moomins and the Great Flood.
Snorkfrøken
Snorkmaiden is young and a bit of an erratic personality, always full of surprises. Snorkmaiden is Moomintroll’s friend and his love interest. Snorkmaiden has a brother called Snork, and they belong in the family of Snorks. The snorks change their colouring according to their emotions, and Snorkmaiden turns pale green when she gets upset. Snorkmaiden is an eternal dreamer, who often daydreams of romance and the prince of her dreams. Her vain and flirtatious nature might seem annoying to the others from time to time, but sometimes her stubbornness turns out to be very useful. Snorkmaiden has lovely golden coloured bangs, and a golden anklet. Snorkmaiden first appeared in Tove Jansson’s novel Comet in Moominland.
Sniff
Known as a little bit fearful and very kind person, Sniff is often included in the adventures of the Moomin family. He also lives at the Moomin house. Sniff loves everything shiny and valuable, and is sometimes quite infatuated by such things. He dreams of riches and wealth, but so far his plans haven’t paid off. Sniff also loves food, and where there is a delicious smelling dinner, that’s where Sniff is found. Unlike many inhabitants of Moominvalley, Sniff dreads water. Sniff is quick to get excited about things, but if any effort is needed to carry out a plan, he gets bored even more quickly. Sniff’s parents Muddler and Fuzzy lost him when he was very young. The Moomin family found him by chance and took him in. Sniff has pointy ears and a long tail. He was first seen in Tove Jansson’s novel The Moomins and the Great Flood.
Tufsla og Vifsla
Thingumy and Bob are inseparable, and an interesting duo. They almost always walk hand-in-hand, and their dialect is so bizarre that in the beginning the only one able to understand them was Hemulen. Being very tiny, Thingumy and Bob usually spend their time in narrow and protected places. They are friendly, but not too open towards others. They like to own things and they like to take possession of other people’s valuables. Thingumy and Bob are identical, but Thingumy wears a red cap. They also carry a suitcase with them. Thingumy and Bob were first met in Tove Jansson's novel Finn Family Moomintroll.
