FOILED MECHANICAL-THEMED PLAYING CARDS
Where mortals meet machines. This premium deck is a bold fusion of humanity and technology, captured in exquisitely crafted, collectible playing cards. Every detail has been thoughtfully refined and brought to life in the world's first fully functional mechanical gear box made entirely of paper. The dynamic open-and-close mechanism is tucked inside a form no larger than a standard deck, defying all expectations.
DESIGNED BY THE PAPER GEAR COMPANY
Conceptualized and meticulously engineered by The Paper Gear Company, this collection features a metallic finish and a revolutionary paper gear box. Available in both standard and gilded editions, it is designed to be not just part of your collection, but the crown jewel of it.
STANDARD & GILDED EDITIONS
The gilded series adds a luxurious metallic edge to the cards. Inspired by the clash of man and machine, the artwork channels steampunk aesthetics, Victorian elegance, Baroque curves, Gothic motifs, and dark fantasy elements woven through every card. Mechanical cogs and gears are subtly embedded into the illustrations to unify the entire experience.
COURTS, JOKERS & PIPS
Each court card and joker has been painstakingly developed through numerous iterations, resulting in richly detailed characters that feel alive. Jacks embody messengers of death, queens represent mythic deities, and kings portray iconic reapers. The jokers—an angel and a demon—offer a tongue-in-cheek commentary on love, wealth, and the human condition. Custom pips further enhance the immersive, otherworldly design.
THE FOILED METALLIC GEAR BOX
A marvel of paper engineering, the foiled gear box delivers a kinetic, tactile experience: gears shift, elements move, and a moment of mechanical magic unfolds every time you open it. Made entirely of paper, it remains lightweight, durable, environmentally responsible, and compact—equal in size to a regular tuck box yet engineered with astonishing precision.
LIMITED COLLECTOR'S EDITIONS
Due to the meticulous craftsmanship required, each edition is limited to just 999 copies. Every gear box is manually constructed with care and precision, making each deck a truly unique collector's item for cardists, magicians, and luxury playing card enthusiasts.
