“Attention to detail has always been so important to me,” says Saksi. “It’s something the Oribe team and I share—a love of craftsmanship, layering, and precision to create something truly special.”

Oribe and Kustaa Saksi Weave a New Chapter in Holiday Craftsmanship

Each year, Oribe’s holiday collection transcends the boundaries of beauty packaging, transforming functional design into collectible artistry. For 2025, the brand’s annual tradition of creative collaboration takes a radiant turn through a partnership with Finnish artist Kustaa Saksi, whose woven universe of pattern, nature, and mythology finds an exquisite new expression in “Golden Threads.”

Saksi—renowned for his graphic storytelling and mastery of Jacquard weaving—brings to life Oribe’s emblematic Gold Lust aesthetic through a tapestry of texture and narrative. Drawing inspiration from Norse goddess Sif’s golden hair, a symbol of life’s natural abundance, his design captures the delicate balance between opulence and organic beauty. The result: four limited-edition gift sets that shimmer with layers of gold foils, embossed detail, and mythic symbolism.

In a six-month feat of artistry, Saksi also created an exclusive 10-foot tapestry for Oribe, woven from over 180 pounds of mohair, alpaca, cotton, and phosphorescent yarns. The piece bridges digital and tactile craft, echoing Oribe’s enduring devotion to storytelling through texture and form.

Beyond its artistry, the collection honors sustainability with zero-emission, zero-waste packaging, crafted from 100% post-consumer recycled materials and printed with soy inks. Even the internal trays are formed from renewable bamboo and bagasse—proof that beauty and environmental consciousness can intertwine seamlessly.

From the Gold Lust Liter Set to the Hair Alchemy Heatless Styling Set, each piece in the assortment embodies Oribe’s signature elegance and innovation. Yet this year, it’s the poetic interplay of artistry and nature that lingers most—an invitation to slow down, connect, and find meaning in every woven detail.

This season, Oribe reminds us that true luxury lies in connection: between artist and craft, nature and design, beauty and meaning.

Golden Threads isn’t just a collection—it’s a tapestry of shared artistry, woven with purpose and grace.

“For me, the holidays have always been about slowing down, spending time with loved ones and appreciating traditions,” reflects Saksi. “It’s a little bit like weaving—every thread connects to something bigger.”
