Butterflies are the epitome of beauty. For centuries, they have adorned the world through art — from ornate patterns on palace windows to exquisite embroidery on haute couture gowns. These delicate creatures begin life enclosed in a cocoon, only able to embrace rebirth by breaking free from their constraints. Their light and fragile wings display unmatched beauty, with mottled colors and intricate patterns that shimmer like gemstones under the sun. Though their lives are brief, butterflies always fly toward the light, savoring the freedom that follows transformation. It is this enchanting blend of elegance and resilience that fuels our creativity. Each time we witness their wings fluttering gracefully through the air, inspiration naturally takes flight.
The Somnium deck is inspired by the great Purple Emperor butterfly - a rare and exquisite species celebrated as the "dream butterfly." Its deep purple wings are adorned with striking, bold white spots, a contrast that imbues it with both mysterious and elegant qualities. The rich gradient purple wings resemble a deep night sky, with white spots at the tips sparkling like twinkling stars; the shimmer of the cold foil reflects like fireflies gilding across the night, light and radiant. The deck's color scheme is purple, with the back featuring the fragment of a Purple Emperor butterfly wing.
The exclusive Collector's Set is an excellent craftmanship for the Morpho Playing Cards. The box featured an built-in butterfly pattern, hinting on the surprise inside. When you lift the lid, a magical butterfly garden unfolds in three dimensions before your eyes, transforming the simple act of unboxing into a moment filled with romantic ceremony. The set contains 4 gilded playing cards, including the Somnium deck which is available exclusively within the set.
