Inspired by the elegance and charm of playing card history, this new deck features a completely new tuck design and back, while the face card art has been redrawn, updated and rendered in full colour.

According to Rick,

The goal again is a deck of the highest quality, with metallic foils and embossing.

A second unique deck is also part of the campaign. This deck, the Rouen 1567 is a carefully crafted recreation of the original historic deck, with full body one way court cards that inspired the playing cards we know and love today.
