40 uncut sheets were created of the Aurum deck. All of them are individually signed and numbered. The Aurum uncut sheet, with it\'s metallic colors and dramatic borders will make an amazing piece of framed art. The sheet measures 22 inches by 26.5 inches.

Inspired by the works of William Shakespeare, this deck is based on the themes prevalent in his work: Life and Death. The themes of life and death are represented with the motif of Thorns and Roses. Thorns embodies the pain of loss and death found in these works, while the Roses the sweetness of love and life. The decks feature four of Shakespeare's best known works: Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet, Macbeth and King Lear. The Roses deck interprets these characters with an item of significance while the Thorns deck depicts their method of death (it's a lot of deaths.)

The Hana luxury playing cards is an original set of decks designed by Steve Minty. These decks are inspired by the unique elegance of traditional Japanese culture. Elements from aspects of textile, art, and social structures are incorporated into this deck along with my design sensibilities to make these different from what I have done before.

A special subset of the 530 total printed of N.17 V.01 (25 of 530 pulled) and were numbered (1 to 25) and signed, were available from stockholm17.com

These decks were numbered on the bottom tuck flap:

N.17 deck V.01 was made for the official launch of the crowd funding website Cardlauncher.com and was printed by MPC (Make Playing Cards). It was designed by Lorenzo Gaggiotti through his Stockholm17 company. 530 total were printed, 505 available as prizes and promo items from CardLauncher and 25 reserved for Private Reserve from creator. The deck was printed by MPC (Make Playing Cards) with a linen finish. It was a near prototype deck, but with a larger printing and distribution as it was always intended for revisions and a full crowd funded release. That new version is a Bicycle branded deck to be launched on Kickstarter on Feb 17, 2015 at 17:17 GMT.

Sakura Playing Cards is one of the first Fully Custom Winter Themed Cherry Blossom Deck of Cards. This deck is unlike any other deck of cards. I myself love the Japanese culture and dedicated this deck to the Cherry Blossom trees in Japan.

Personally, as a magician & cardist I passionately believe that, quality is just as important as the design of a deck. Sakura Playing Cards will be printed with the United States Playing Card Company (USPCC) on the finest quality card stock they have to offer. The Bee Casino Stock and Air Cushion Finish will provide the smoothest experience when using these cards.

In addition, it was always my dream to create my own fully designed deck of playing cards and we did just that for the first deck! With your help we successfully funded the first edition of Sakura Playing Cards (Spring Edition) in 2018. That being said, you will not only be aiding in the success of my dream, but will also get some rewards, Sakura Playing Cards. And remember, anything helps, even a dollar. I am eternally grateful for everyone helping my dream become a reality.

An uncut sheet of Liturgy Bronze, signed by Lotrek.

"ARABESQUE" Playing cards is probably the most technically challenging deck produced in modern playing card industry. And it has been masterfully executed... From the sculpture-like tuck case... To the double-foiled faces... And the incredibly intricate back design...all is near to perfection

Except for the fact that the 3 of hearts and 8 of Spades have the wrong suite indicators.

100 decks in a white stock tuck case were produced

Venexiana Gold also won the Best Innovation on a Deck of Playing Cards award from UnitedCardists 2014 Deck of the Year http://unitedcardists.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6448

"Arabesque" is the second deck in the "Heritage series" which started with ICONS and is the first deck ever to feature:

• Extremely intricate Gold & Silver foil on both sides of each card, hot stamped over the printed artwork. This makes registration particularily difficult and it has never been attempted before.
• CMYK + metallic gold inks on both sides of the cards.
• Gold & Silver foil plus Embossing & Debossing for the tuck case, creating a unicue depth variation with an amazing effect in the light.
• Smooth handling despite the quantity of foil, making the deck perfectly playable.

Reprint on Bronze Stock

Reprint on Bronze LITURGY is a deck that pays tribute to the Byzantine painting technique. Sophisticated printing with inks prepared by Lotrek to achieve the exact desired tone, using the colored stock as the foundation and adding colors and opaque white accents to create the feeling of light, LITURGY is an intersection between printing and painting, deeply influenced by the Byzantine religious art and illuminated liturgical manuscripts. Printed on bronze metalic stock.

Deck features:

• Limited edition of 600 decks (300+300)
• Poker size
• 54 cards
• Printed on Bronze metallic stock
• Very elegant and sturdy tuck case featuring gold foil, silver ink printing and deep debossing
• Available in 2 colors for the back design and tuck case: Green and RedStock

In 2017, award winning GOLDEN OATH playing cards was released: The first deck ever printed exclusively with hot stamped foils, which now is almost impossible to find. Before the final printing Lotrek had printed a limited run of 50 prototype decks that are slightly different from the final version: The stock is embossed on the faces' side, the back design has a red border around the gold frame -which in the final version was gone- and the varnish is also different.

The decks are in a plain red stock tuck case, hand numbered and signed.

LIMITED EDITION ICONS Imperial Trial Although not intentional, it served as a trial for the official ICONS Imperial. The tuck has the same artwork but it is printed with gold metallic ink on black stock. It maintains the elegance of the design but at the same time it has a more "rough" feeling, matching the test character of the deck. And of course, it is not an "I-don't-dare-to-touch-it" tuck! The main difference from the official ICONS Imperial is the back border, which is white in this version.

LIMITED EDITION ICONS Imperial Demo This was the final attempt to produce official ICONS Imperial, and the only issue are tiny marks on the faces of some cards left by the silver foil. The tucks is printed on a very beautiful burgundy color stock with a shiny gold metallic ink.
