    Luxury Playing Cards Designed to Impress

    Whether you're dealing at the table or gifting to a collector, Artisan Playing Cards offer a level of design and craft that sets them apart. Illustrated by Simon Frouws in South Africa, these cards are a masterclass in understated opulence, with intricate detailing, rich materials, and exceptional print quality that’s been praised worldwide.

    Produced by The United States Playing Card Company for Theory 11, each deck is crafted using FSC-certified paper from sustainable forests, printed with vegetable-based inks and finished with starch-based laminates. Every detail has been considered, right down to the feel in your hand.

    Magician David Copperfield called them “the best playing cards ever produced.” We think you’ll agree.
