Tiffany & Co has debuted its latest collaboration with contemporary artist, Daniel Arsham, in partnership with the Pokémon franchise.
The Tiffany & Arsham Studio & Pokémon capsule collection has been designed in Daniel’s ‘Future Relics’ aesthetic, where he reimagines everyday objects as archaeological discoveries from an imagined future.
The collection is inspired by the artist’s exhibition in Japan – A Ripple in Time – which features a variety of Pokémon works of art meant to evoke the passage of time.
It features nine jewellery designs – from pendants to necklaces – highlighting six iconic Pokémon displaying creativity, artistry 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,” commented Daniel Arsham. “With Pokémon and Tiffany itself, there’s a sense of cultural permanence about each.”
The collection features an oxidised sterling silver pendant with diamond accents highlighting one of six Pokémon – Pikachu, Charmander, Squirtle, Jigglypuff, Cubone or Mew.
Inspired by the highly collectable nature of the Pokémon brand, Tiffany designers created an oxidized sterling silver necklace with diamond accents featuring all six Pokémon. 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 18K yellow gold with diamond accents. The oxidized sterling silver designs are packaged in a Tiffany & Arsham Studio & Pokémon Blue Box, while a Tiffany Blue Poké Ball houses the gold Pikachu pendants.
