Deck View: Spiral Holo Fontaine Playing Cards

Holographic. Hypnotic. Iconic.

The Fontaine Spiral Holo Playing Cards are a limited-edition deck featuring a hypnotic rainbow holographic spiral built around the iconic Fontaine “f” logo.

The standard faces and courts are retained, while the Ace of Spades incorporates the spiral artwork and the two Jokers feature holographic “Center of Cardistry” designs.  Each tuck case and card back has a slightly different holographic spiral placement, giving every deck a subtly unique appearance. 

Limited to 6,000 decks worldwide. Printed by Legends Playing Card Company with a traditional cut, the deck combines Fontaine’s minimalist aesthetic with an eye-catching holographic finish.

Error (Laser Edition) Playing Cards by Dealersgrip

The second new release from Dealersgrip. Error playing cards returns with Laser, a striking new edition that pushes the series beyond its traditional black-and-white aesthetic.

Built around the idea that “a laser is light that agreed on a direction,” the deck features razor-sharp blade imagery rendered in striking blue holographic foil. Under changing light, the seemingly blue finish shifts across the holographic spectrum, creating a dynamic effect across the card backs and tuck box.

The deck introduces a warm grey foundation, replacing the stark monochrome palette of previous Error editions while maintaining its organic minimalist character. The court cards use a single colour matched to their respective suits, adding subtle variation without compromising the clean design.

Printed on soft-feel stock for smooth handling straight out of the box, Error Laser comes housed in a matte grey tuck case with an extended flap and holographic foil detailing.

Error Laser is priced at $24 on Dealersgrip.

The NEW Sepal Orchid Playing Cards

 

First of 2 new releases from Dealersgrip! The popular Sepal deck returns with Orchid, the latest addition to its floral playing card series, featuring a single orchid captured in vibrant close-up photography.

After six years of keeping its flowers within the familiar Sepal frame, this edition breaks the boundary. The orchid's petals extend beyond the traditional border and spill through the card's notch, creating a striking sense of movement and growth.

The deck features vibrant floral photography, detailed photographic court cards, and a colourful gradient backdrop that gives each card a fresh, contemporary feel. The cards are printed on a soft-touch stock designed to handle smoothly straight out of the box.

The deck is housed in a full-colour wraparound tuck box with an extended flap, continuing Sepal's distinctive minimalist approach while giving the orchid room to flourish.

Sepal Orchid is priced at $24 on DealersGrip.

Vanir Playing Cards Bring Norse Mythology to Life

Vanir Playing Cards, designed and illustrated by Nicolai Aaroe, offer an abstract and artistic interpretation of Vanaheimr and the Vanir from Norse mythology. Rather than pursuing historical Viking authenticity, the project embraces fantasy, imagination, and the mystical power of Sejdr magic.

Inspired by Norse mythology, fantasy fiction, and the visual world of The Lord of the Rings, this playing card series explores the Vanir as a race connected to nature, magic, wisdom, and the hidden forces of the Earth.

The series features three distinct editions: Blót (Ritual), Sejdr (Magic), and Vanadis (Goddess). Each edition features a unique colour palette, tuck box, card back, Aces, and metallic edge gilding. Blót combines earthy brown with teal energy and gold gilding, Sejdr focuses on vibrant teal with matching teal gilding, while Vanadis uses a dark, nocturnal palette accented by copper and magical energy.

Fully custom, the 12 Vanir deities appear throughout the court cards, while the Aces offer additional storytelling elements, particularly in the Blót edition, where they depict Vanir ritual scenes.

The tuck boxes feature matte lamination, metallic foil, embossing, seals, and illustrated interiors, with the iconic Stag of Vanaheim appearing on the backs. The card backs depict flowing energy veins representing Sejdr magic, creating a chaotic yet symmetrical visual system unique to each edition.

For collectors, the project also includes a 32-page illustrated lore booklet exploring the mythology, characters, culture, and artistic interpretation behind the Vanir, alongside a 50mm antique-gold-plated metal coin featuring embossed tribal artwork.

Printed by WJPC on premium linen-finish stock, each edition is limited to a maximum of 1,200 copies. Pledge starts at $25 on Kickstarter.
