After two long years of meticulous design we’re pleased to unveil a project that will rival all those that came before it. MAKERS are the most intricate and luxurious deck we’ve produced to date. From the moment the cellophane comes off, to the first perfect faro, it’s evident no detail was spared. MAKERS is the meeting point between art and functionality—they are an experience to behold.

We produced MAKERS to our highest standard of production. Each tuckcase has been embossed and stamped with layers of gold-foiling. The result is nothing short of breathtaking. Out of the box, conjurors and collectors alike will enjoy 14 custom illustrated court-cards representing the foundational “makers” civilization has been built on. To us, these individuals are the pillars of unparalleled craftsmanship: something that we hold in the highest regard.

MAKERS are both a tribute and a celebration.
