A few years ago now, my sister decided that every birthday she would treat herself to a Moomin mug from which to sip her morning coffee. (If you’re not familiar with the Moomin clan, they are a 65 year old Finnish cartoon about a family of trolls and rather dear to most Scandies). Every year a different Moomin mug is brought out as a limited edition so she now has quite a collection – see below – which, as we shared a flat, I was lucky enough to use too. This year she got married and will soon be moving her mugs out with her but luckily I’ve discovered that a Moomin shop has just opened in Covent Garden Market building – definitely time to start collecting my own…
