Here it is everyone! We're excited to finally reveal the design of the Mana Deck! Much thought has been placed on these beautiful pasteboards, we hope you appreciate them as much as we do. :)
The back exhibits a combination of ornate flourish designs as a reflection of all three art forms with its flowing swirls and organic movement. This deck reveals elements of circles to represent focus and unity and the number 3 is incorporated into the design as it represents growth and good fortune.
The tuck box design has a 3 of hearts card reveal on the side flaps as well as a latin phrase on the flap of the lid, "Magus Per Mens Et Manus".
We have decided to stay with the traditional court card design with only one exception - the color ways. The Court Cards have been given their own respective colors - Spades are purple, Hearts are red, Clubs are green and Diamonds are silver and they are all combined with gold accents to give each suit its own spirit.
The Ace of Spades is a combination of flourishing swirls that create the spade as a whole, representing unity. There are also elements of three in the design for growth and good fortune. The rest of the Aces have been given their own special framing in honor of these frequently overlooked and neglected cards. The rest of the pipped cards are traditional in design, however, the red cards are printed in metallic red to give it more vibrance and energy.
The Jokers have been designed in honor of the Cardist with a visual display of 'The Oracle Cut' - a Sybil cut variation with an 'Angel' display, created by Erik Mana. There is also an 8 of Diamonds card reveal which also represents infinite wealth and good fortune.
