Deck View: No.7 Burgundy (Second Edition) Playing Cards

Winter. Warm. Vibrant.

The beautiful Second Edition of the No7 series by Montenzi Design is the follow-up to the UC2019 No7 Playing Cards but this time with a different vibe that matches the color tones of the Winter season. The Burgundy colorway is reminiscent of mulled wine, a family-favorite beverage in the winter, incorporating the key colors of the ingredients: wine, orange, cinnamon, and mulling spices.

The back design features a floral pattern at the center and continues outward extending “vines” which signify the vibrant explosion of taste from the beverage. The courts of each suit have each donned the vibrant winter hues of the deck. The subtle gradients of color help provide an almost 3D effect to the layered ribbons that wrap around these beautiful two-way designs.

The deck is printed by WJPC on premium stock and cardistry finish. Available now from montenzi.nz for $14.

The deck blends the visual identity of this iconic film with traditional playing card elements to create a unique and collectible deck that card and movie fans will love.

There is something very Theory11-esque about the design of the deck. Let us know what you think in the comment below.

Collections: Eye Of The Ocean Playing Cards

The Quartermaster Edition is a pre-release for The Eye of the Ocean Kickstarter project last year. Designer Lorenzo Gaggiotti printed the deck to check the cards to see how they work together and what needed to be tweaked. At the same time, it is part of Stockholm17’s Patreon 2020 annual reward (around 100 already shipped).

A limited number was also made available on the Eye of the Ocean Kickstarter. The tuck and back design are different from the main Eye of the Ocean decks. Tweaks and changes were made to the faces, as well. Only 300 units of Quartermaster were printed in total, and all of them have the signature and the number.
