The 2017 seasonal summer mug is called Summer Theatre. Tove Slotte chose the images from Tove Jansson’s novel Moominsummer Madness. She used different shades of green, red, white, black, yellow and orange to create the pattern. This exceptionally colourful mug presents Moomintroll, Snorkmaiden, Moominpappa and a lion. Since 2016, a plate with similar design has been released at the same time with the seasonal mug. This time the plate had a slightly different design. Seasonal stickers have been used in the mugs since 2006.
