Lepidopterist (Release)

Kowaleski & Co. // 2021

The idea for this deck, The Lepidopterist, started as just that: an idea — one that I wasn't sure would ever come to fruition. Between jobs, I would work on it and, after many months, it was finally ready to bring to you! The real inspiration for this deck came from two main things:

  • Art Nouveau design and architecture, specifically conservatories/sun rooms

  • The incredibly beautiful Chrysiridia rhipheus, better known as the Madagascan Sunset Moth

Both are so unique and so beautiful. Art Nouveau brought an elegant, almost psychedelic, look to the end of the Victoria era and the Sunset Moth has such vibrant, iridescent colors, it almost doesn't seem real. Their special appeal combined to inspire this project.

Thus, The Lepidopterist playing cards were born— a deck of cards inspired by elegant architecture and nature, bringing elements of both into the creation of something I hope you will be proud to be a part of.

LEPIDOPTERIST (PINK Arist Proof)

Art of Play // 2021

Lepidopterist is the study of butterflies and within this luxurious deck, we invite you to explore the natural beauty of nature combined with architectural details inspired by the elegant Art Nouveau era of the early 1900s. Originally released on Kickstarter by the designer Ethan Kowaleski in a green colorway, the cards have since become highly collectible. In collaboration with the artist, we are pleased to announce a brand new limited edition Lepidopterist Deck in pink. Packaged in a luxurious letterpress-printed tuck box with gold foil accents. Sustainably produced using FSC certified paper and vegetable-based inks on our trademark thin-stock and finish. Printed by The United States Playing Card Company.

Fontaine Sleight

Fontaine Cards // 2017

SLEIGHT edition Fontaines are the 6th deck of Fontaine Playing Cards by Zach Mueller, made in collaboration with Blumhouse Productions. A limited run of 10,000 decks printed by USPCC sold out in 2 hours. They will not be reprinted. In 2015 our friend and director of the film, JD Dillard, asked us if they could use Fontaines in SLEIGHT. We said hell yeah man. A few weeks after I was watching a rough cut of the movie on my laptop. A few months later we all went to Sundance, and the premier was a smash success. Today it's playing in most movie theaters across the USA. Oh, also, it's really great. With the Fontaines being in the movie, we wanted to make a SLEIGHT edition. Something similar to the Black Fontaines seen in the film, we landed on a midnight navy blue.

Orbit x Aesop Rock

Orbit x Aesop Rock // 2021

From the official Orbit.af site: The official collab deck between Orbit and Aesop Rock - Crushed Bee Stock - Designed by Coro (Designer of Spirit World Field Guide Album art) - EXTREMELY limited availability From the Aesoprock.com site: This isn’t an ordinary deck of cards. No, these are in fact, portals to a new dimension. Full access pass to the Spirit World. Each card showcases the super-vibrant artwork of the visionary artist, CORO, featured on Aesop Rock's Spirit World Field Guide album. Whether you’re an advanced cardist, a fellow illusionist, or the casual Gin Rummy-er, these will be sure to bring your activities into a whole new realm. The jokers feature a triptych of the original Spirit World Field Guide artwork, the Ace of Spades has a message of support for your inter-dimensional travels, and the carrying case has just as much attention to detail as the cards themselves. With just one shuffle, you will feel the difference of the air-cushion finish. Springy, light, and durable, you will never return to a standard playing card now that you’ve found yourself within this Orbit. Safe travels. Traditionally cut, crushed premium air-cushion finish, matte box. Designed for cardists, magicians, and collectors. Featuring a retro 70’s Arrco pip package and custom Spirit World Field Guide original artwork designed by Justin "CORO" Kaufman. The card stock is the most premium stock at the US Playing Card Company and is crushed down with extra pressure during the printing process to make the cards thinner and more springy than regular decks. This ensures that the cards keep their integrity even after weeks/months of heavy use.
