The idea for this deck, The Lepidopterist, started as just that: an idea — one that I wasn't sure would ever come to fruition. Between jobs, I would work on it and, after many months, it was finally ready to bring to you! The real inspiration for this deck came from two main things:

• Art Nouveau design and architecture, specifically conservatories/sun rooms

• The incredibly beautiful Chrysiridia rhipheus, better known as the Madagascan Sunset Moth

Both are so unique and so beautiful. Art Nouveau brought an elegant, almost psychedelic, look to the end of the Victoria era and the Sunset Moth has such vibrant, iridescent colors, it almost doesn't seem real. Their special appeal combined to inspire this project.

Thus, The Lepidopterist playing cards were born— a deck of cards inspired by elegant architecture and nature, bringing elements of both into the creation of something I hope you will be proud to be a part of.

Portfolio52 proudly presents a series of custom poker size decks of playing cards designed with a touch of oddity by Stockholm17. The Odd Fellows are a care-free crew, unbothered by the norms of "functioning members of society". Come aboard and meet a couple of supremely odd characters, each with their own blend of cards and art packaged in personality that's almost too much for your eyes to handle. This project is the first official P52-branded project created as an ode to our love of playing cards. Join our crew in a celebration of the odd and reckless.

The Uncle Tibia deck features pearlescent purple and cerulean foil across the barrel embossed case. 17 marks scratch across the top signifying the date of the launch and the number of Stockholm17. On the face of the deck is Uncle Tibia himself with a custom diecut of his skull to show a peek of what is inside.

The custom illustrated court cards feature a wildly intoxicated bunch with custom illustrations for each individual pip. The back designs are also 100% custom to each deck in the Odd Fellows series while still maintaining a cohesive design to maintain integrity throughout.
