Snorkmaiden purple Moomin plate. The designs on the bowl are taken from the Moomin on the Riviera comic strip from 1955. Snorkmaiden and Moominpappa dream of a luxurious life on the Riviera, which results in the entire Moomin family sailing to France. Along the way, they experience several mishaps and misunderstandings.

The attention-seeking Snorkmaiden likes to be the centre of attention and, thanks to her charm, manages to win at the casino. She buys a bikini with the winnings. The design on the plate shows Snorkmaiden trying to find a suitable spot on her nose to place the lipstick she acquired on the trip. The story depicts how Snorkmaiden combines femininity and vanity with courage and ingenuity.

The Snorkmaiden purple Moomin plate is designed by Tove Slotte based on Tove Jansson's original drawings and is part of Arabia's Moomin Classics collection.

The mugs, bowls, and plates with Moomin motifs are popular collectors' items that are often combined with each other and with other Moomin porcelain from Arabia.
