Flying Tiger Copenhagen, a unique design goods store from Northern Europe, the homeland of Santa Claus, is running a Christmas campaign from October through December under the theme "Not your ordinary Christmas." The concept is a "Christmas with a twist" that adds new ideas and a playful touch to the classic holiday.
Featured here is the "Animal Snow Alpine Series" (アニマルスノーアルペンシリーズ), which went on sale on October 16, 2026 (Friday). The 21-item lineup is designed with scenes reminiscent of Nordic snowy mountains, including animals enjoying skiing, snow-covered mountain huts, and gondolas. Besides adding festive color to Christmas, the series is a "multiway" collection that stays useful after the holiday season as winter interior decor and tableware. 17 of the 21 items are highlighted below.
