Something Special Coming December 7
Eames Playing Cards. Designed by Art of Play in close collaboration with The Eames Office. A tribute to the timeless sensibilities of Charles & Ray Eames.
Our first edition of Eames Playing Cards showcases the Eames Office Starburst Logo on the backs. This iconic emblem was a recurring motif in the work of both Charles and Ray. Here it signifies their boundless creative energy—an explosion of light reaching for the outer limits of design's true purpose. The unique numbering system on the faces of the cards enables acts of cardistry to function as subtle homages to the Eameses' classic film “Powers of Ten." The court cards honor the natural majesty they found in elemental geometric shapes. Mathematics, form, and the critical role of constraints in design are threads woven throughout the Eameses' life and work.
Eames Playing Cards come in a letterpress-printed tuck case printed on sustainable paper using vegetable-based dyes. The design of the box references the famous home built by Charles and Ray, a creative base where they lived for many years. Made in the USA.
$18.00 USD
These cards look and handle perfectly.
I got these cards as a gift for my husband and I would recommend them to anyone. They are gorgeous, unique and he was so impressed. I’ll be buying more from Wondercraft- they’ve been kind, professional and so efficient. Thank you!
I really like this design, in all of its colors. I wish I'd been around for the Kickstarters! The metal ace is awesome. I have also enjoyed getting the various stickers and unfolded tuck case with the decks. I wouldn't mind being able to order a couple of emerald tuck cases because they're going to see a lot of use. I also wish I could get my hands on one or two of the black nickel dealer coins! The holographic logo sticker is spectacular, and I'm also planning to make refrigerator magnets out of the various colored ace stickers. You've made a fan!!
Now my favorite shirt I own!!
These cards are awesome I am so happy I was able to get one. And as always the shipping was fast and the deck was packed with care.
