Sumi Playing Cards - Kitsune is Card Experiment's 2nd collaboration with ToKMR Graphics, following our highly successful Sumi Playing Cards campaign.

In Kitsune, we continue to translate and transform the traditional Japanese tattoo art form of Wabori into playing card style, retaining as well as enhancing many of the interesting and delightful features we had in Sumi Playing Cards. The focus of Kitsune centers around the fox spirit, a staple in Japanese folklore. We scoured many different sources of folktales, stories and myths about fox spirits and selected a few well-known ones as sources of inspiration for the characters in the Court cards. Kistune continues to serve as an homage to Wabori and faithfully represents the visual nuances and quality that is the hallmark of the Japanese traditional tattoo once again. This creates a visual playing card masterpiece like no other -- a masterpiece that weaves fantastical stories of begone times with modern playing card aesthetics.

Great Deck

Very pretty deck, lots of detail. Cards are very sturdy and I love the two-part joker design. I wouldn't play with these cards, just keep them for show and the occasional trick, because you won't want to damage the art!
