Verve: Shine Edition (House of Playing Cards)

"Verve is defined as having vigor, spirit, or enthusiasm. The Shine Yellow deck, the last color in this series from Verve Luxury Playing Cards has a simple and elegant design that steps away from typical ornamental styles to evoke a premium feel that’s right at home in any high-stakes poker game. There are no extraneous elements such as built-in reveals; just an elegant deck with a single blank card and a subtle one-way back design. This limited Shine Yellow deck is printed in a yellow color that emulates real leather.

Highest Quality Printing - Embossing and Metallic Inks Included

The deck was printed by the US Playing Card Company on Bee Casino quality card stock with a high-embossed Magic Finish. The tuck box is embossed with foil printing for an added touch of luxury. The faces are printed with three metallic inks and include custom court cards, aces, and jokers.

Pure Elegance & Luxury - You've never seen a deck like this before!

The Shine Yellow deck is the most limited Verve deck to date with only 2,000 decks printed. This deck epitomizes pure elegance and class. It truly belongs in the hands of the discriminating collector, magician, or cardist." -House of Playing Cards

Also available in Blue or Red.

Curator (Emmanuel Jose)

"It all started with one card a week. Artist Emmanuel Jose has created every element of this breathtaking deck entirely by hand. He did not use digital software, or pen and ink. Every design was painstakingly crafted out of paper. Yes, every number, letter, pip, and image was made from hand-cut paper. Emmanuel created 1 card per week for an entire year to finish the complete deck!

Known as a "transformation" deck, this style of art has been around for years. The artwork speaks for itself, and each card stands on its own merits. The back design features scissors, hinting at the method used to create this masterwork. The entire deck has a black, white, and red color scheme, which extends to the striking tuck box.

Only 3,500 decks of this amazing Limited Artist's Edition have been printed. Get yours today!" -House of Playing Cards

Heraldry (CircleCityCards)

"From the mind of Russell Kercheval, designer of the Americana deck, comes an entirely new level of sophistication. The Heraldry deck features 100% custom artwork that has been thoughtfully created to conjure up images of a bygone age. The back design is split into 4 sections and has thin borders, making this an ideal deck for fanning. A special double-backed card is also included with each deck, ideal for a color-changing deck routine.

The faces have a unique grey background with a delicate swirl pattern, and feature Roman numerals to indicate the value of the card. All of the court cards and Aces have bold and intricate ornamental designs. The tuck box has silver foil elements and minimal text to really make the deck stand out in your collection.

This special first-edition printing is available in Azure (Blue) and Sanguine (Red) varieties - only 2,500 of each color have been created!" -House of Playing Cards

Available in both Red and Blue.

Snow Owls (The Blue Crown)

"In 2010 stories and artwork were discovered in a book from the early 1700’s that appear to provide evidence about a secret society of magicians. Formed to protect magicians during the Salem Witch Trials of the late 1600’s, the Order of the Owl was founded in the Northeastern US. We have painstakingly restored and recreated the artwork we found in order to put this deck into the hands of modern magicians and keep the memory of this society alive. Some believe that the order still exists, though we cannot be sure. Secrets are everywhere.

We have created a limited run of 2,500 white Altruism decks, which we have dubbed Snow Owls. The Snow Owls have the same detailed artwork as the regular Altruism decks, but in a beautiful black and white color scheme.

NOTE - Due to a printing error made at US Playing Card, 1st edition Altruism decks have a duplicate Queen of Hearts. You will receive the Queen of Diamonds together with any deck ordered." -The Blue Crown

Dominion (Handlordz)

"A brand new deck by De'vo vom Schattenreich, with amazing artwork by Prof. D.W. Phelyx Hopkins. We worked together to bring something different in this world of 5 million cards that all look alike. This deck has been carefully designed to capture the eye, both still, and in motion. It is the most beautiful and versatile fanning deck on the market. This deck is mirror back fanning deck, meaning that you can use them normally and not worry about mixing up the back designs. These cards work great for all of your needs, but when you Fan one way and you'll get a beautiful bright red fan, fan the other way and you'll get a black different pattern. The fans were designed to be highly visible both on and off stage. Giant fans are amazing with this deck!

This deck comes with 4 cover cards, 2 blank jokers, and 2 double sided red and black cover cards. This is such an amazing deck in many ways! Deck concepts by De'vo with amazing artwork by Prof. D.W. Phelyx Hopkins.

The amazing new Dominion Fanning deck comes with two sets of these awesome Cover Cards. On one side is full red, and the other black. You place these on the top of the deck to make the deck appear the same as the cover card. You also get two sets of blank cards that can double as jokers. The double sets are so you can divide the deck in half and still have each half covered. Also they work great with one on top and bottom.

Black Spot cards have gradient pips, red cards have standard red pips in the corners only. None of the spot cards have center pips (but the court and aces do). All have this beautiful pattern in the center. De’vo didn't want a "standard" kind of deck with Dominion. He wanted to break the rules and create something truly different and beautiful!" -Handlordz

MMD #1 - Magicians Must Die (Handlordz)

"1st Edition Comic Deck MMD – Magicians Must Die - with Limited Edition Cover. The World's first comic deck series is here! This one of a kind deck has been in the works for 10 years, and now De'vo has made this amazing project a reality. Nothing like this has ever been done before by the USPC - or anyone else that we know of. This deck will rock your world! Amazing artwork by comic artist Jay Noble Peteranetz. The same stock and finish as De'vo's Blades, and the back forms a poster sized comic! Each image was hand drawn and inked.  Many of the weapons/illusions were first created in 3D, then used as reference material for the artist.  This has been a huge project and is a first in the history of cards. Don't miss out on this Limited Edition cover of the very first edition of this comic!" -Handlordz

A COLLECTOR, who has spent a fortune collecting rare and unique decks, but can’t bear to open them to admire the beautiful cards inside (because they’re so damn expensive);

Split Spades Lions (Silver) (David Blaine)

"This is the newest and most beautiful installment of the widely collected Split Spade series. The new box features embossing, silver foil stamping, and the same paper used in the tuck cases of the White Lion Series B decks. The cards themselves feature perfectly balanced metallic inks on both sides. They feel and handle as well as any split spade in the series. Designed uncompromisingly for performance and style these are the best split spades yet." -David Blaine

Aurum (Sovereign) (Encarded)

"Aurum is designed to be intricate, elegant and fit for the Venetian royalty that inspired it. Every card is intricately designed and features multiple metallic inks and was also carefully crafted to be "purposefully imperfect." The court figures are all based on the familiar Bicycle court but were painstakingly redrawn to have many subtle imperfections and asymmettric features. 

4,500 of the decks will come in a sumptuous royal purple tuck box featuring incredibly intricate gold foiling, metallic inks and embossing. Those luxury features weren't enough, as it also has a never-before-seen design feature: a custom diecut that allows you a glimpse inside to the special gold ad card within. Not just a simple box, the diecut is made to mirror the overall theme of the deck, with its arabesque motifs." -Encarded
