Sarpaneva x Moomin 80 - A Timeless Celebration to 80 Years of Magic
2 Limited Editions: Monochrome and Colors
For 80 years, Moomin has captured hearts with its stories of wonder, nature, and
adventure. Now, Sarpaneva pays tribute to this cherished world with a timepiece
that bridges art and horology — a watch where the landscapes of Tove Jansson’s
imagination meet the masterful craftsmanship of Finnish watchmaking
It was a dull red in the gathering darkness, and there, just above the treetops, something shone. A little red spark like a distant star. It didn’t move, but it seemed to flicker a burn as if it were very hot.

"Please hold my paw! I’m frightened!” Snorkmaiden said. “You mustn’t be,” comforted Moomintroll. “We know it won’t hit the earth for three days, and by that time we shall be home, and snug in the cave. Now we’ll eat your marvellous soup and then go to sleep.”
So the Snorkmaiden ladled out the soup, and when they had eaten they all curled up together on the mat which she had woven out of grass. The fire slowly died – but above the dark sile
wood the comet shone red and minous.
