The Moomin ABC mugs are decorated with adorable initials featuring various Moomin characters. In the "C" mug illustration, Too-Ticky and Moominpappa are shown on a sailing adventure. The Moomin family faces an unusual ordeal at sea when a group of sticky-fingered Niblings invade their ship, with one even gnawing through the ship's rope. Eventually, this Tahmatassu becomes part of the crew. The scene is inspired by the comic Moomin under Sail.
The C mug is part of the "Reading, writing and the Moomins" initiative that promotes the importance of literacy and the joys of reading. The mugs' Moomin alphabet is based on Tove Jansson’s hand-drawn initial capitals and lettering created for the book The Memoirs of Moominpappa as well as her maps of Moominvalley. The mugs' form is familiar from the Iittala Teema series, but in contrast to most Moomin mugs, the ABC mugs' size is larger: 13.53 x 0 fl oz (4 x dl. dl).
