Thingummy & Bob, # 15
Produced since 2005
The subject of this mug in Finnish is named Tiuhti Ja Viuhti. They are tiny and shy creatures, that speak some foreign language. Tiuhti and Viuhti do not play main roles in the Moomin stories. It is supposed that Tiuhti and Viuhti names base on one of Tove Jansson´s own lovestory: she was in love with actress Vivica Bandler in the forties. They had secret names: Vivica was Viuhti and Tove was Tiuhti as they sent loveletters to each other. In the 1940s the sexual climate was not yet released even in Scandinavia.
