Moomin mug collection Moomin 80th anniversary is a collection of Moomin Arabia Classics with Moomin 80 special bottom stamps. In 2025, it became 80 years since Tove Jansson published her first Moomin novel, The Moomins and the Great Flood, in 1945. The first Moomin story is about Moomintroll and his mother, Moominmamma, who set out to find Moominpappa, who has gone on an adventure. They end up on a stormy sea and are later surrounded by a flood. In the end, they find the most beautiful valley in the world, Moominvalley.
Since then, Moomins have also found their place all around the world in the form of Arabia’s beloved Moomin dishes, especially Moomin mugs. Moomin mugs have established themselves as a well-known Finnish design icon and one of the largest ceramic mug collections in the world. The story of the Moomins at Arabia dates back to the 1950s when Tove Jansson herself decorated the first plates and mugs of a children’s set of dishes designed by her mother.
Now Moomin Arabia celebrates the Moomins’ 80th anniversary year with a special collection of the most popular Classics mugs with a special bottom stamp. The Classics mugs are the character mugs in Arabia’s Moomin collection. They feature the characters who live in Moominvalley doing their typical chores in a colorful setting. These six most popular Classics mugs are: Moominmamma marmalade, Moominpappa grey, Moomintroll grassgreen, Snorkmaiden lila, Snufkin green and Little My and Meadow. Each mug has a special Moomin 80 bottom stamp. These special edition Moomin mugs are sold only from August 1st until the end of 2025, so they are in production for less than six months.
Five years before, in 2020, Arabia launched a series of Classics mugs with Moomin 75th anniversary bottom stamps. There were a total of 21 different mugs in that collection.
