Passione Playing Cards presents Vivaldi: a playing cards project that aims to bring the baroque vibe and the music of the Italian composer and violinist Antonio Vivaldi into a set of masterfully illustrated decks.

The Vivaldi ensemble is composed of two main decks: Vivaldi Allegro and Vivaldi Largo. Vivaldi Concerto is a special, limited and numbered book-like edition holding the playing cards of both variations. Stretch goals will add a series of goodies that will be revealed later in the campaign. Stay tuned!

In Vivaldi Allegro characters are drawn with a (bowed) string instrument. All court cards are custom, and the colour scheme of each suit matches the mood of a season in order to homage The Four Seasons: one of the most famous masterpieces composed by Antonio Vivaldi.

Scans of each card can be seen at www.marytcusack.com/maryc/decks/html/Cards/Intaglio.html

Intaglio is a series of prints & playing cards derived from hand engraved copper printing plates printed in the traditional Intaglio style in a collaboration between Kings Wild Project and Thornwillow Press in New York. Intaglio printing for playing card art has not been used for centuries. There were 3 versions/colors of the deck produced: red, blue and black (which was a KickStarter exclusive).

"It is my hope with Legal Tender to take what I have learned from all of the lessons and experiences over those years and create the finest deck of playing cards the I can create. Legal Tender is the natural evolution of my incredible love of currency art and bank note engraving. It is my hope with Legal Tender to create a series of decks that champion the vastly different styles and looks of currency of the world, starting with modern US and Chinese notes. Thank you so much for dropping by and thank you so much for backing the project." ~Jackson

This year the Magna Carta turned 800 years old. Initially ambiguous in its future, this document has transformed over time into an icon that has rippled throughout world history with positive change. To me, the Magna Carta is one of the most inspiring examples of timelessness. Today the Magna Carta is the foundation of liberty and human rights in many parts of the world. This deck series was created to honor and celebrate this landmark occasion. 

This series is split up into two factions. Royals vs. Rebels. The Royals deck commands attention in rich black, representing the King and his empire. The sleek back design features the gorgeous crowned lion in which 3 heads represent the 3 lion crest of the Angevin Empire. As a way to pay tribute to this event, you can now recreate it with the world's first hexapytch deck series. Often times the sides of a tuck case are wasted away with filler text, being an underutilized area for artwork. Inspired by old book collections which featured beautiful murals across their spines, I've illustrated this famous event based on the iconic image of the signing. Utilizing 2 decks of the Royals as the center with a Rebels deck on either end creates the basic image, adding a King John deck (Gold or Silver) on the very ends completes the full image.

• Tuck cases are foiled with eye-catching gold and embossed on premium stock to provide a sense of depth to the touch.
• Inner tuck case is lined with an exact replica of the actual 1215 Magna Carta document in archive from The British Library.
• Cards are made with Aristocrat stock and coated with premium magic finish for increased longevity and performance.
• Card designs feature gorgeous metallic gold accents throughout that help unite the cards to their cases and to each other.
• Printed with the United States Playing Card Company
