Elegant. Storied. A monument in miniature. A deck designed in collaboration with The NoMad Hotel in New York City — a tribute to the historic district that, in the nineteenth centu ry, drew Oscar Wilde, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, and Nikola Tesla to the same few blocks. The artwork draws directly from the hotel's architecture, from its lower-level fireplace to its signature phrase, Made Nice. The back design, rotated, reveals the shape of an eye — a quiet nod to the Latin inscription that frames each card: beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Sealed in a tuck case finished in gold and black foil. An ode to old New York — every shuffle a small piece of the neighborhood. Show more
