Echoes in the Palace Patronium LTD700
This is a narrative poker deck where each suit tells a dramatic scene of power, intrigue, and consequence. The Jack, Queen, and King of every suit form a unified tableau, inspired by Renaissance triptychs and courtly drama.
Designed for both play and divination, the deck unfolds a silent story of deception, desire, ambition, and judgment—enhanced by four special Jokers representing the forces of fate: Madness, Fortune, Misfortune, and Disguise.
More than a deck of cards, this is a palace of stories, secrets, and symbolic power.
The tuckboxes feature progressive number and signature with fountain pen, numbered and signed with care one by one. It is a box with a full-length flap with embossed and foiled artworks, and it is designed to integrate parts of the palace onto the box. The back side of the box is thick, as it is designed to show an actual metal-grated window - embossed bricked walls and window frame with die-cut holes and REAL black metal wire mesh along with gold foil decoration pattern with a strolling black cat. The full length flap mirrors the window, with the framework done in gold and there are spaces for the hand numbering (on the small circle) and signature (bottom side of the window). Also, the top of the flap has a small square die-cut hole which is to view the gilding of the cards - the deck is gilded with turquoise foil. The front side of the box, which extends to the right side, is a miniature sundial - complete with a small pop-up triangle. The interior of the box has an extra backdrop featuring Latin inscription, and you can see them through the grated windows when the cards are out of the box.
