Moderne Art Deco Playing Cards are designed and illustrated by Randy Coffey. Inspired by an Art Deco style which was popular in the 1920s and 1930s. Randy has mixed Art Deco shapes with the well-known classic elements of modern English playing cards and traditional details like scepters, flowers, leaves and and orb to create an attractive new deck.

Besides a very nice design, metallic gold and silver inks are used for printing on the box and the cards both front and back of the cards making his deck more interesting.

Randy is currently raising the funds to professionally produce the pack on Kickstarter, visit the campaign page or the official website for more info and images.
