Based on the cycles of the moon rather than the Sun, Lunar New Year falls on February 17 this year, and festivities including parades, lion dances, and fireworks displays will be going on for many days. 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. I’ve already spotted plenty of brands getting in on the equine action with a range of giftworthy launches, including a fiery crimson horse fromJellycatand a dainty gold horse charm from Mejuri. Below, I’ve rounded up the most noteworthy Lunar New Year drops as well as some general décor and accessories to help usher in prosperity and good fortune — but definitelydon’t dillydally, as many of these releases are limited edition and likely to gallop away soon.
