  • Luxury Art Playing Cards

    Illustrated, fully-custom, whimsical anthropomorphic art playing cards inspired by medieval England and Edo Japan.
    The Castle in the Sky is a limited-edition deck of art poker playing cards, accompanied by a unique display case and gallery-quality prints. This project showcases a decade of artwork, following the whimsical journey of Nenya cats and Coney rabbits as they take to the skies. Hand-illustrated and fully customized, the deck includes two distinct stories, each with two versions. The cards feature edge printing, foiled boxes, and are produced in a limited run by King Star. Inspired by William Morris' textile patterns and the portraiture of Renaissance and Baroque Europe, the design depicts a world where the Coney rabbit courts collaborate to lift their castle to the heavens. Each card within the deck is part of an interconnected puzzle, revealing a larger hidden image when arranged correctly. The project is fulfilled from Japan by Jack Brutus Penny and his partners, bringing a touch of sky-bound fantasy to collectors.
