Tiffany & Co. has entered into a collaboration with contemporary artist Daniel Arsham of Arsham Studio to produce a line, The Pokémon: the Tiffany & Arsham Studio & Pokémon capsule collection.
Designed in Arsham’s “Future Relics” aesthetic, where he reimagines everyday objects as archaeological discoveries from an imagined future. The collection is inspired by Arsham’s exhibition in Japan, A Ripple in Time, which features a variety of Pokémon works of art meant to evoke the passage of time.
The collection features nine jewellery designs from pendants to necklaces highlighting six iconic Pokémon displaying unparalleled creativity and design while reinforcing the House’s longstanding connection to contemporary art and iconic pop culture.
“With my latest project with Tiffany, we’ve recontextualized Pokémon – a nod to my 2022 A Ripple in Time project in Tokyo – to orchestrate a new narrative,” said Daniel Arsham. With Pokémon and Tiffany, itself, there’s a sense of cultural permanence about each.”
The Tiffany & Arsham Studio & Pokémon capsule collection will feature an oxidized sterling silver pendant with diamond accents highlighting one of six beloved Pokémon —Pikachu, Charmander, Squirtle, Jigglypuff, Cubone or Mew.
Playing on Pikachu’s iconic yellow colour, two different size iterations of necklaces, one in small and the other in a larger pendant size, are available in 18-karat yellow gold with diamond accents. The oxidised sterling silver designs are packaged in a Tiffany & Arsham Studio & Pokémon Blue Box, while a Tiffany Blue® Poké Ball houses the gold Pikachu pendants.
The capsule collection will be available at the Tiffany & Co. Landmark in New York City, Omotesando store in Tokyo and Tiffany.com in North America and Japan this December.
