Tove 100, medium (2014)

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.
