Playing Cards - Lovely Package

Union Playing Cards

November 27, 2015 by Lovely Package

“Timeless Americana is laced throughout the design, with iconography of colonial America and patriotic symbols of peace, prosperity, and potential. Unions are Made in America, using FSC-certified paper, vegetable-based inks, and starch-based laminates. Over a year in development, every aspect of the design was created from scratch – from the breathtaking court cards to the back design and Ace of Spades.

As a special edition, Unions are available in a historic Ironside Edition, with a display made of authentic 300-year-old reclaimed wood from the Charles Towne Navy Yard, used in construction of actual ships during the Revolutionary War and War of 1812. Four decks are inset in a special edition plank, branded with the US Constitution across the face.”

JAQK Blue Edition Playing Cards

October 6, 2015October 6, 2015 by Lovely Package

“A deck that is as beautiful as it is functional, JAQK Cellars Playing Cards are a true work of art. The cobalt blue design features ultra-thin borders, with a flawless feel and durable finish.

With striking metallic blue and silver foil, this new edition is our best yet. We’ve improved our print production and embossing process, and the results speak for themselves: more detailed embossing and crisp design.

Every aspect of this deck has remarkable attention to detail. Even the court cards are designed from scratch, with regal, elegant, intricate illustration.”

The NoMad Hotel Playing Cards

April 28, 2015 by Lovely Package

“NoMad Playing Cards from theory11 were produced in collaboration with The NoMad Hotel in New York City. In the 19th century, The NoMad District of New York was the meeting place of the era’s elite – from Oscar Wilde to Charles Dickens, Mark Twain to Nikola Tesla. Our vision was to create a deck of cards that would serve as a monument to The NoMad. The result is a timeless blend of beauty and elegance.”

Contraband Playing Cards

April 27, 2015February 22, 2015 by Lovely Package

“Designed in London by Joe White, Contraband Playing Cards were inspired by secret societies, conspiracy theories, and everything unknown. Every inch of the Contraband deck was designed from scratch – the court cards, the Aces, and even inside of the box.

Best of all: The Contraband Book Lamp. Two very special, 50-year old books. Each book has a secret. The top book is a functional lamp, handcrafted with an Edison bulb and antique nickel power switch. Slide the top book to reveal a secret compartment hidden inside. Four decks of Contraband Playing Cards reside within – yours to use or replace with contraband of your own.”

Check them out at theory11.

Tycoon Playing Cards

September 8, 2014 by Lovely Package

“In August 2013, we began a quest to create playing cards fit for display at the legendary Waldorf Astoria, the gathering place for royalty and the ultra-wealthy. For the past 14 years, Cohen has performed Chamber Magic there, in a private Waldorf Towers suite, for sold-out audiences including Warren Buffett, David Rockefeller, and the Queen of Morocco. In 2012, Cohen became the first magician in a half-century to sell out Carnegie Hall.”

MM Identity Lab calendar

March 25, 2014 by Lovely Package

“Every year, MM Identity Lab produces a calendar that correlates with the Chinese Zodiac. Because 2014 is the Year of the Wooden Horse, we decided to create a poker-inspired desk calendar that doubles as a deck of cards. The woodcut-style illustration and wooden holder play off of the Zodiac. 12 of the 52 cards in the deck represent the 12 months in the year and correlate with the four seasons. These calendar cards can be displayed on the wooden holder to guide a person through 2014. Come the next year, the calendar can hang around as a custom-designed deck of playing cards.”

Whimsical Playing Cards

September 18, 2013 by Lovely Package

Design by Oksal Yesilok | Country: Turkey

“This is a single deck of 54 cards. Design flies, diamonds, hearts and spades instead of using symbols to understand the symbols has been to create new symbols. Based on the concept of logo design that I created whimsical illustrations that have identified and encouraged. In general, a certain line art made using the technique of vector based graphics language that supported the program. Take the time to complete the printed version of the design lasted 3 months.”
