From Randy Butterfield, Ireland playing cards are inspired by the beautiful island of its namesake. The deck features intricate Celtic Knots and bold, beautiful colors. According to Randy on the campaign page,
My wife and I visited Ireland a long time ago, and we enjoyed every second we spent on The Emerald Isle.
Inside, the card back showcases the Irish Harp in a common head-to-head design structure. The Celtic Knots border and background pattern help finish the timeless and elegant look.
The Court Cards for the Ireland Deck are semi-custom with the rich green colors visible throughout the face cards. The Hearts and Diamonds Courts and Numbers Cards feature shades of orange in the interior background, Courts’ clothing, and watermarked Celtic Knots patterns.
The Clubs and Spades Courts and Numbers Cards continue the green coloring from the outside to the interior background, Courts’ clothing, and watermarked Celtic Knots patterns. The varied orange / green interior coloring between Suits serves to help with gameplay.
All of the face cards also utilize gold color accents in strategic areas of the design. The borders, patterns, and color combos result in an intricate, vibrant, and bold card. The Ace of Spades also features the intricate Irish Harp.
The non-matching Jokers feature the detailed Erin Go Bragh shield. One Joker has an orange interior background and a Celtic Knots pattern. The other Joker has green coloring throughout all of those elements.
The cards are packaged in a rich green tuck box. The custom Irish Harp is prominently featured with unique designs and “engravings”. Also included is a border with Celtic Knots in the corners and Celtic Knot patterns throughout the background design.
