We are Bloom Playing Cards, a creative hub that artfully captures the captivating essence of Japanese culture in our designs. Following the tremendous success of our debut project, 百鬼夜行 Hyakki Yagyō Playing Cards (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons Playing Cards), we are thrilled to present our latest campaign, the 8th project in the renowned Room One Collection, that continues our playful spirits and mysteriousness, The Fox's Wedding Playing Cards.
Legend has it that when foxes gather to celebrate their union, they create an ethereal atmosphere filled with enchantment and magic. The rain serves as a protective veil, shielding the foxes from human interference. It is said that witnessing a fox wedding is a rare and extraordinary sight, as these mystical creatures are elusive and often avoid human contact.
Each suit within the deck represents a distinct season, capturing the essence of nature's transformation throughout the year. The integration of the four seasons not only adds depth and symbolism to the deck but also serves as a reminder of the perpetual cycles of life and nature. It reflects the harmony between the foxes' wedding celebration and the eternal rhythm of the changing seasons, creating a profound connection with the world around us.
Each numbered card is graced with a corresponding number of foxes; for instance, the 3 of Hearts reveals three foxes within its enchanting design, weaving a tapestry of mystery and elegance.
Drawing inspiration from the captivating Japanese myth of "Kitsune no Yomeiri" – the Fox’s Wedding 狐の嫁入り – this deck combines the rich calendar symbolism of playing cards. The 12 court cards symbolize the 12 months of a year, merging time's passage with the mystical allure of the foxes.
Inspired by the mystique of the Fox's Wedding, the "Kitsuneveil" Case is an enchanting addition to the Ghostlight and Sunshower Editions. This intricate extra case, adorned with golden motifs, features delicate openings that reveal tantalizing glimpses of the captivating tuck box within. Much like the elusive kitsune, Kitsuneveil invites curiosity and intrigue, beckoning you to explore the hidden wonders it guards. More than a mere container, it serves as a gateway to a world where ancient Japanese folklore and modern elegance converge, creating an unforgettable experience.
By embracing The Fox's Wedding Playing Cards, you embark on a journey that captures the essence of the mythical tale and invites you to experience the magic, wonder, and hidden enchantment that lie within the captivating world of the foxes.
