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.

Introducing the Shinto Edition, featuring an enigmatic vanishing tuck box and a floral pattern gilded edge . If the box is just opened normally, it appears empty, embodying the elusive nature of foxes in the folklore... Discover the hidden secret and unlock the mystery to reveal the deck within.

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.

Just as the foxes hide behind the rain during their secret wedding ceremony, we have incorporated a vanishing tuck box to emulate this concept. When the box is not opened correctly, it appears empty, symbolizing the elusive nature of the foxes. Only those who unlock its secret are granted access to the hidden realm within, revealing the mesmerizing artistry and captivating imagery that lies beneath.

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.

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.

Tails of Mischief is a limited-edition, full-bleed, art poker playing card deck that uses the canvas to tell a story. Inspired by Japanese ukiyoe wood-block printing, historical culture, and Buddhist and Taoist philosophies, it tells the story of four mischiefs of mice that each approach nature from a different perspective.

Each of the four versions has its own custom tuck box and custom back. The faces depict the same scene, but from each mischief's differing perspective, with different seasonal details, special court colouring, and completely unique tens and jokers.

The Whey of the House has its foundation in order. The house mice, living beneath the floorboards of the Nazo Nazo guest house and dreaded Nenya cats, need structure for the safety of all, and the command of nature itself.

The house mice huddle up in winter. Their infrastructures and commerce working like clockwork. Huge maruda dolls celebrate the coming of new years and opportunities for improvement. (Story heavily inspired by a whimsical interpretation of Japanese culture, such as Daruma dolls).

However, the uncompromising wood mice hold all mice-kind back, and revolts in the fields threatens the delicate order.

The house is on the move, will you see order restored?

Details

• Four versions: The Whey of the Woods, The Whey of the House, The Whey of the Fields, and The Whey of the Islands
• Limited Edition print run
• 52 playing cards / 2 jokers
• Printed by the Legends Playing Card Company
• Premium ViperTM Finish
• Intricate laser cutting and clear holographic foiling with emboss effect on tuck box
• Each of the four tuck boxes interact to create a side-display when stood together
• Each version features different edge printed artwork.

The Whey of the Woods is rooted in acceptance - that there is a natural flow and it is our own nature to scuttle and fall with it. The spirits of the forest guide their scouts, the flow of the whey pulls their hunters’ bow-strings.

The wood mice dance with the winds of autumn. Buried deep within the forest Burrow, an underground labyrinthian village, pups and elders nestle away stockpiles of acorns - assuming the Jays don't pinch them first.

But persistent field mice cut into their borders at the behest of the arrogant house, and Ryuku mice travel and hunt unfettered.

The Burrow must rise, will you help protect the forest?

The Whey of the Islands flows from knowledge. The Ryukyu mice have travelled further than any other, merchants and sailors all, and know that there is a natural ebb and flow to both nature and order.

The Ryukyu mice, from the Ryukyu islands, set sail in summer. Flags and kites of flying fish thrash in the winds as they make land and their caravans parade the less-trodden trails. Their turquoise body-paint is brushed across the hills.

Alas! Laws of the house restrict their movements, and the woods protest their merchant caravans. Aye, tides need be changing.

The Ryukyu have set sail, will you ensure they find fair winds?

The Whey of the Fields stems from adaptation. The field mice understand, live together with and shape the fields. They grow cotton bolls to dye clothes and pad roofing, and clovers for tiling, but only when the season permits.

The field mice thrive in spring, as flowers bloom. Cherry petals litter the turned soil, and the field mice celebrate the doll festival and butsuse with ogre masks and throwing beans.

But under the paws of the house mice, and constant threat from the woods, tensions are rising and squeaky whispers fill tavern corners.

The fields are being called to hand, will you help them answer?
