House Of Disaster Moomin Love Wallet

Moomin Love Wallet

Moomintroll and the Snork Maiden embrace in a touching scene from Comet in Moominland on this delightful wallet from House of Disaster. The gold ring which he returned to her after he bravely rescued her is clearly visible on the Snork Maiden’s ankle and the eyes of the two trolls are closed as they share a moment of love. Around them lush flowers are portrayed in the simple signature style of Tove Jansson’s illustrations, and strange insects and creatures peer from the undergrowth. The image is printed in black and white, on a pink background, in keeping with the feminine nature of the Snork Maiden.

The leather look wallet front is pink all over, with the black and white image on the front. Inside there are five credit card slots and a clear plastic window for ID or photo on one side, and four long compartments, including one with a zip on the other. The word ‘Moomin’ is embroidered into a cotton label and repeated in gold on the back of the wallet. There is a further zipped compartment on the back, finished with a lovely detail, a brushed gold tone metal zipper pull in the shape of Moomintroll, seated with a bemused expression on his face. With their usual attention to detail, Disaster Designs have even included a card product label which can be folded to stand up, embossed with the Moomin logo and featuring a dancing popup Moomintroll.

This wallet makes a lovely gift for anyone who enjoyed the tales of the Moomins in their childhood, but also simply as a quirky piece with a pretty image. Its practical design means it will always be useful and it makes a lovely gift for girls of all ages, from daughters to mothers and granddaughters, as the legacy of Tove Jansson dates from the 1940’s and her books have never been out of print.

Books not included!

Moomin Range

Tove Jannson’s Moomin books have been loved by generations of children since they first appeared. She wrote and illustrated them with humour and detail, and they were made into comic strips and TV cartoons as well as the original series of nine books. There is also a Moomin theme park in Finland. The characters are based on people she knew as a child, redrawn as animals with fantastic names and appearances. Disaster Designs have recreated scenes from the books for this whimsical range of items, which will be loved by Moomin fans, lovers of children’s literature and anyone who enjoys unusual design.
