Winter Mug 2014 has arrived!

The winter seasonal mug from Arabia has finally hit store shelves here in Finland. The mug is called Skiing with Mr Brisk. You can see many of the Moomin characters trying their luck at skiing, some fairing better than others :) The mug bears some similarities with a old seasonal mug from years past.
