A little piece of Okinawa to keep the island spirit alive, all winter long.
Every summer in Okinawa, the sound of taiko drums fills the air. Eisa dancers take to the streets, communities come together, and the island comes alive with music, movement, and celebration.
And then, almost as quickly as it arrives, summer is over.
But what if we didn’t have to leave all of that behind?
This year, we’re bringing a little of that summer spirit into the winter with the launch of our 2026 Oki Social Christmas Ornament Set, featuring our latest collection, The People of Okinawa.
For years, we’ve drawn inspiration from Okinawa’s landscapes, history, culture, and everyday island life. But through conversations with visitors and friends who’ve spent time here, we kept hearing something interesting: what they missed most about Okinawa wasn’t necessarily the beaches or the beautiful scenery. It was the people.
The friendly faces. The warm greetings. The characters you meet along the way. That unmistakable island spirit that makes Okinawa feel like Okinawa.
That’s what inspired this year’s collection.
More Than Just Christmas Decorations
This year’s four-piece ornament set celebrates the people and cultural traditions of the Ryukyu Islands.
The characters wear traditional Ryukyu costumes, bringing a little piece of the old kingdom into your home. Each design is a small tribute to the people, performances, and traditions that have helped shape Okinawa’s identity.
Designed in Okinawa and produced using printed and laser-cut wood, each ornament is double-sided and measures approximately 12 cm tall.
We’re keeping this year’s production to just 100 limited-edition sets.
A Little Something Extra for Early Birds
As a thank-you to those who support us early, the first 50 pre-orders will also receive an exclusive Oki Social 2027 calendar.
And here’s another reason not to wait: the early-bird price will increase as we reveal more characters from this year’s collection.
Keep a Little Okinawa Close This Winter
At Oki Social, we believe that the best souvenirs aren’t just things you bring home. They’re reminders of places, people, and moments that stay with you long after the trip is over.
Maybe it’s the sound of the drums at a summer festival. Maybe it’s a familiar face from a neighborhood you’ve come to love. Or maybe it’s simply the feeling of being on an island where people still take the time to say hello.
We hope this year’s ornaments bring a little of that feeling into your home.
Because summer might be over, but the island spirit doesn’t have to be.
The 2026 Oki Social Christmas Ornament Set is now available for pre-order.
From our little island to your home, Happy Holidays!
