In 2004 Arabia launched a new Christmas Mug that was only in production until 2005. The original images are rarely seen pictures from Tove and Lars Jansson’s songbook Visor från Mumindalen. Tove Slotte changed the characters a little by replacing Moomintroll with Moominmamma. The Moomintroll in the mug is from Tove Jansson’s novel Moominland Midwinter. The Christmas tree is originally from a postcard from 1971, Wonder of Christmas, designed for Unicef. In her design Tove Slotte made many changes to the details, combining images from several original pieces. The Little My chosen for the mug is originally from Unicef’s 1981 postcard March for Peace.

Karakterer
Lille My
Little My lives in the Moomin house and is a part of the Moomin family, even though she is not really related to the Moomins. Mymble older is her mother, Mymble her sister, and Snufkin his half-brother. In spite of her small size, Little My is very courageous, fearless and brave. Little My is known for being quite feisty and having a sharp sense of humour. Little My always makes her own decisions and acts as she sees fit. She doesn’t let any kind of mayhem disturb her, and loves spending time in narrow and unusual places that most can’t even fit into. Little My is also very curious, she loves secrets and is good at keeping them. Little My has an orange bun of hair and a red dress. Little My first appeared in Tove Jansson’s book The Memoirs of Moominpappa.
Mummimamma
Moominmamma is the lovable and gentle mother figure, and her peaceful character brings some stability to the colourful and lively Moomin family. Moominmamma is a caring and loving personality, who only wishes all living creatures well. Moominmamma appreciates uniqueness in everyone and is always just. Amongst the inhabitants of Moomin Valley, Moominmamma is considered a very reliable and helpful person. She is never out of chores and she loves to keep busy in her kitchen and the garden. Moominmamma has an astonishing ability to see that every cloud has a silver lining. The apron and the handbag are very important accessories to Moominmamma. In the handbag she carries supplies for all possible occasions. Moominmamma appears in almost all of the Moomin books.
Mummipappa
Moominpappa is the decisive and fair patriarch of the Moomin family. Moominpappa is known to be adventurous by nature, with thousands of experiences and stories from his younger years. He is also a thinker, who writes his chronicles and always wants to know what is going on around him. Family is everything to Moominpappa, and he is willing to do whatever it takes for his family. He is settled in Moominvalley and enjoys the quiet life, but still remembers his days of wild adventure. Moominpappa loves the sea and considers himself a great sailor and a fisherman. He uses a cane, and is hardly ever seen without his top hat. Moominpappa first appeared in Tove Jansson’s book The Moomins and the Great Flood.
Filifjonka
Ms Fillyjonk is a friend of principles and good order. She is a caring and nervous mother, who only wants her kids to avoid the influence of bad company. Obeying the rules is very important to Fillyjonk, and sometimes she gets very upset over the tiniest obstacle. As Fillyjonk is very fond of cleaning and almost symmetrical order, sometimes the kids and their wild energy gets on her nerves quite a lot. However, Fillyjonk seems to secretly envy the relaxed and casual life of the Moomin family. Fillyjonk lives in a fenced house in Moominvalley with her three children. She wears a red dress, a hat and carries a purse. Fillyjonk’s kids are also dressed in matching clothes. Fillyjonk first appears in Tove Jansson’s novel The Book about Moomin, Mymble and Little My.
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.
