26 Best Lunar New Year Collections for 2026: Jellycat, Lululemon

1. Jellycat Festival Horse, the must‑have plush

Jellycat’s Festival Horse is the standout soft toy across outlets: “Jellycat enthusiasts will want to add this festival horse to their collection for 2026. It serves as the perfect bedtime companion for little kiddos or a couch decoration for Lunar New Year. If you collect Jellycat plushes, then you don’t want to miss out on this one because it likely won’t stick around after this year,” SheKnows writes. NYMag adds scale: “Jellycat’s Festival Horse stands almost a foot tall but is just as soft and squeezable as any stuffie,” and lists the Jellycat price as $60.

2. Jellycat Canterneigh Pony, the petite companion

GrowingTreeToys lists the Canterneigh Pony alongside the Festival Horse in its product grid at $60.00, positioning it as a collectible within Jellycat’s seasonal drop; an Instagram launch post announced, verbatim, “2026 is the Year of the Horse! and the Jellycat New Year collection is coming! Say hello to Canterneigh Pony, who hit shelves this morning.” If you’re shopping for a child or a Jellycat collector, the pony is the pocketable, on‑trend option.

3. Jellycat New Year collection, why the whole capsule matters

Beyond individual plushes, Jellycat’s New Year collection has become the season’s collectible moment: SheKnows spots the festival horse as emblematic of the wider drop and the brand’s limited‑run appeal. Multiple retailers surfaced the pieces at differing prices (see item 23), so treat the collection as a priority buy if you want to secure variants, plushes tend to sell out quickly.

4. Jellycat (Holt Renfrew listing), retailer exclusivity and pricing variance

Global News highlights a Holt Renfrew listing for the JELLYCAT Festival Horse, noting it as “Soft and huggable” and priced at $85 at Holt Renfrew. That retailer‑specific price point demonstrates how the same seasonal item can be positioned differently in department‑store assortments, use it as a reminder to check both brand and boutique listings when hunting for a limited item.

5. LEGO Galloping Horses Canvas, a grown‑up collectible build

NYMag frames LEGO’s Galloping Horses Canvas as a giftworthy decorative set that “draws inspiration from traditional Chinese brush paintings, the horses look as though they’re bursting from a canvas.” NYMag lists price: “$110 at Lego.” It’s a refined present for someone who enjoys design‑forward décor that doubles as a tactile hobby.

6. Mejuri dainty gold horse charm, wearable symbolism

NYMag calls out “a dainty gold horse charm from Mejuri,” and Global News lists the price explicitly: “$98 at Mejuri.” A gold charm is an economical way to mark the Year of the Horse with intention; Mejuri’s price point and minimal silhouette make it an easy, elevated gift that reads personal rather than trendy.

7. Moleskine Year of the Horse Notebook, intention on paper

SheKnows recommends the Moleskine Year of the Horse Notebook for goal‑setting: the notebook “has a red cover and image of a horse. Keep it next to your nightstand for late night journaling sessions or to jot down daily to‑do’s.” It’s a practical, ritual‑forward present for anyone who plans with pen and leather‑bound style.

8. Papier Lunar New Year Photo Arch, a personalised card set

Papier’s Lunar New Year Photo Arch card set earns SheKnows’ nod for its ability to personalize: it’s a “festive Lunar New Year card set. Add your favorite photo of yourself or family to send to loved ones and friends and add a personalized message inside for a special touch.” For hosts or far‑flung family, a photo card pack elevates greetings into keepsakes.

9. Disney Store Mickey Mouse Lunar New Year 2026 Plush, pop‑culture red and gold

SheKnows’ descriptive pick for collectors: an “adorable plush of Mickey Mouse dressed in a festive red and gold Lunar New Year satin outfit. This is a collectors item as it’s part of the Lunar New Year 2026 collection so it’s in your best interest to snag this now before it’s gone for good.” If the recipient favors nostalgia or Disneyana, this balances sentiment and seasonal cachet.

10. Barbie Signature 2026 Lunar New Year Collectible Barbie Doll, couture as keepsake

SheKnows details the Barbie: she is “dressed in a long red gown with a pleated bodice adorned with a golden peony blossom print. It also comes with other accessories including a sheer golden wrap and golden peony earrings to pull the look together.” That level of costume detail makes the doll more of a displayable collectible than a plaything, perfect for mantel or cabinet displays.

11. Marshall Emberton III Lunar New Year Edition 2026, named, pending details

SheKnows lists the “Marshall Emberton III Lunar New Year Edition 2026” by name in its roundup but provides no product copy in the excerpt. Flagged here as a named limited edition to watch: follow up with the brand for specs and price, because speaker collaborations like this typically sell on aesthetic and sound alike.

12. Abercrombie Lunar New Year Logo Crew Sweatshirt, casual, cozy red

Global News describes Abercrombie’s offering as “This cozy oversized‑fit Abercrombie crewneck is made from soft fleece fabric. Features Lunar New Year‑inspired graphic logo detail at left chest and back, crew neckline and banded hem and cuffs,” and lists price: “$99 at Abercrombie.” It’s a practical, giftable red piece for those who prefer seasonal wardrobe accents over novelty items.

13. Lush “Prance And Prosper” gift set, affordable, artful bath treats

Global News highlights Lush’s “Prance And Prosper” gift set at “$22.00 at Lush,” noting it features the luck‑bringing Gallop To Success Bath Bomb and Sunrise Shower Gel, “beautifully designed by Vietnamese artist Jill Tran and thoughtfully packaged using sustainable, recycled materials.” It’s a wallet‑friendly, artful treat for someone who enjoys ritual baths and eco‑minded packaging.

15. Sephora Year of the Horse Makeup Set, curated beauty for celebration

Global News presents a limited Sephora set: “Ring in the Year of the Horse with a curated collection of beauty essentials, this limited‑edition Sephora set brings together iconic mini and full‑size favorites for a chic, celebratory glow,” priced at “$69.00 at Sephora.” It’s the sort of curated kit that suits hostesses, frequent travelers, or anyone who loves variety in a single, gift‑ready box.

16. Simons loose‑fit T‑shirt (Priscilla Yu design), artful, everyday wear

Global News calls out Simons’ loose‑fit T‑shirt as “crafted from organic cotton and adorned with Priscilla Yu’s bold, abstract floral and horse design,” priced at “$29.00 at Simons.” When you want a wearable piece that nods to the zodiac without being literal, this is a thoughtful, affordable option.

17. Stanley red Lunar New Year tumbler, festive utility

Global News highlights a red Stanley tumbler priced at “$59.00 at Stanley,” remarking that it’s festive yet practical. It’s a seasonal variant on a bestseller: for commuters or outdoor lovers, a red Stanley is both a daily use item and a simple, modern symbolic gift.

18. Modern mahjong sets, strategist’s modern take on tradition

The Strategist’s list title, “#44 (New) Lunar New Year Gifts: Jellycat Horses and Modern Mahjong Sets,” signals renewed interest in contemporary mahjong sets as elevated gifts. Kitty Guo covers gifts across categories (beauty, fashion, gifts), and modern mahjong sets fit the “Toys and collectibles” and “Home goods” crossover, ideal for someone who values tradition with modern design.

19. The Strategist’s category curation, read this if you want a focused shopping map

The Strategist organizes its picks into Food and drink; Toys and collectibles; Home goods; Fashion and accessories; Beauty, a useful frame for building a balanced Lunar New Year gift edit. Kitty Guo’s byline underlines the piece’s focus on gifts, and the categories help you decide whether to prioritize consumables, décor, or wearable tokens.

20. NYMag’s framing and zodiac context, why the Year of the Horse matters

NYMag sets context plainly: “Based on the cycles of the moon rather than the Sun, Lunar New Year falls on February 17 this year.” It adds that “According to the Chinese‑zodiac calendar, 2026 is the Year of the Horse, which symbolizes energy, momentum, and forward movement; now’s the year to take initiative and make decisive moves.” Use that symbolism to choose gifts that promise motion, growth, or courage.

21. SheKnows’ 26‑item roundup, the buyer’s starting list

SheKnows’ headline reads “26 Best Lunar New Year Collections 2026: Jellycat, Lululemon & More,” and the site describes the piece as a “wide‑ranging roundup … of 26 Lunar New Year collections and limited‑edition drops from mainstream brands,” targeted at seasonal shoppers. Treat this compilation as a shopping map: it aggregates plush toys, beauty drops, jewellery, and novelty items that sell out fast.

22. GrowingTreeToys retailer listing and timing, availability matters

GrowingTreeToys’ product grid shows Jellycat Festival Horse and Canterneigh Pony priced at $60.00; the site also carries a prominent shipping advisory: “SHIPPING DELAY! We are away at Toy Fair in NYC to find new toys to fill our shelves. All online orders will ship on Thursday 2/19/26.” Their storefront metadata (202 S. Allen St., State College, PA 16801; hours; contact info) is useful if you’re tracking retail stock or local pickup.

23. Retail price variance to watch, the Festival Horse example

Be alert to differing price points: NYMag shows “$60 … $60 at Jellycat,” GrowingTreeToys product images display “$60.00,” while Global News reports “$85 at Holt Renfrew” for the same JELLYCAT Festival Horse Plush Toy. These source‑reported discrepancies are presented exactly as listed; if price matters, check both brand and boutique retailers before committing.

24. Instagram launch posts, the first‑look advantage

The Instagram announcement gave immediate visibility to the drop: “2026 is the Year of the Horse! and the Jellycat New Year collection is coming! Say hello to Canterneigh Pony, who hit shelves this morning.” Social posts like this are often the earliest confirmation of stock, follow brand feeds if you want to nab limited pieces the moment they land.

25. Year Of The Horse Pouch Cervino, a fragment to keep on your radar

Global News’ excerpt includes the fragment “Year Of The Horse Pouch Cervino …”, a product name to watch even if full details aren’t provided in the excerpt. When shopping seasonal capsules, pouches and small leather goods often appear as quick‑turn, symbolic gifts; add this to a “follow up” list for retailer checks.

26. Don’t dillydally, a final, practical purchase strategy

NYMag’s editorial voice cautions urgency: “but definitely don’t dillydally, as many of these [...]” limited drops move quickly. My practical advice grounded in these sourced drops: prioritize collectible runs (Jellycat, Disney, Barbie), confirm retailer pricing (see the Jellycat examples), and balance a showpiece (LEGO or jewellery) with a usable treat (beauty set or tumbler). Secure the keepsake first; the rest can round a meaningful, intentional Lunar New Year gift.
