Fiskars Japan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo) announces the launch of the 'Iittala x Pokémon' collection by the design brand IITTALA, commemorating its design philosophy cultivated over its long history and the 30th anniversary of the globally beloved 'Pokémon'. 'Origo', one of IITTALA's representative tableware series, and Pokémon were both born in the late 1990s. As a limited collection celebrating the milestone of these icons that have walked through the era together, it is scheduled to be released on Friday, May 1, 2026, at 10:00 AM at Iittala stores and the Iittala official online store.
Fusion with IITTALA's Design Icon 'Origo'
Since its birth in 1999, Origo has been loved as a 'modern classic' for its bold design featuring eye-catching stripes. This iconic series has become the canvas to celebrate Pokémon's 30th anniversary. While retaining Origo's functionality and colorful rhythmic sense, it reinterprets the globally loved 'Pikachu' as a playful and modern design.
Features of This Collection
This collection is designed not merely as character merchandise but as functional objects that blend into everyday life. Color stripes inspired by Pikachu fuse with Pikachu illustrations drawn on the products. The finish blends Origo's unique graphical rhythm with the rich storytelling that Pokémon possesses. Nostalgic yet modern, this collection brings color and joy to everyday dining tables, offering a lineup that will be cherished for a long time not only by collectors but by everyone who loves design.

■ Comment from IITTALA Creative Director Janni Vepsäläinen
"At first glance, IITTALA and Pokémon might seem like an unexpected combination with no common ground. However, that unexpectedness is exactly what attracted us. Both 'Origo' and 'Pokémon' were born in the late 90s. Fusing these two was not merely a collision, but felt like rediscovering shared roots. It is full of surprises, yet somehow nostalgic and familiar. It overflows with joy and playfulness, but underneath it all are beliefs cherished by IITTALA: transparency, restrained beauty, and craftsmanship passed down across generations."
