The True to its Origins Moomin jar by Arabia is part of a collection of items with the same name. The collection is adorned with illustrations from Tove Jansson's amazing stories about Moomintroll and his friends. The jar depicts a scene that reflects Tove Jansson's journey into her own emotional life, as it is based on her last book in the Moomin series, Moominvalley in November, which she wrote just after losing her mother.
The scene itself is based on two stories: Moominvalley in November and Moominpappa at Sea. A common theme to both books is their melancholy tone, which is visible in their dark, almost bleak colour palette.
This jar is perfect for holding various items — a great addition for the kitchen or really any room in the house. Beautiful on its own, and, naturally, it matches well with other items in the same collection.
