Snork Maiden is sweet and sensitive, sometimes a little vain and flirtatious snork who enjoys being the centre of attention. In the Snorkmaiden Lila mug from the Moomin Classics Collection, she has bought her first-ever lipstick and bikini and is trying them on. However, she rejects them both after realising they are not for her after all.
The illustrations are based on Tove Jansson's comic "Moomin on the Riviera" from 1955. . Complete your Moomin tableware collection with this lovely piece.

Moomin Classics series features each character of the Moominvalley emphasizing each one’s own typical traits. The artwork present the characters from the front and behind and tells the story of that specific character. Arabia’s Moomins are turned from stories to ceramic illustrations by designer Tove Slotte. She has been drawing Moomins onto Arabia items since the beginning of the 1990s. The designer draws inspiration from Tove Jansson’s original illustrations, which she adapts to ceramic shapes. The Moomins have always been close to Tove Slotte’s heart. She articulated the significance of the Moomins nicely when she said: I think everyone should enjoy a little dose of Moomin philosophy every day.
