Your audience will watch, baffled, as the deck begins to shrink.
Slowly.
Visibly.
Impossibly.
A card is freely chosen (signed if you fancy) and then returned to the deck. With nothing up your sleeve (literally), the cards start to disappear right before their eyes.
First, the cards of the not-selected colour vanish.
Then those of the not-selected suit.
Finally, all the remaining cards disappear, leaving only the chosen one, which you can hand out immediately.
It’s an ultra-clean, multi-phase visual vanish that even your nan could follow. Seriously, this structure makes perfect sense, and you can master it quicker than you can say, “abracadabra.”
Unlike those traditional vanishing deck tricks that are over in a blink, DIMINISH lets your spectators witness the impossible unfold at a leisurely pace. The deck visibly shrinks three times, building suspense and jaw-drops before the grand finale.
Every phase is motivated, and every moment strengthens the illusion (you won’t even need to pull a rabbit out of your hat).
And the best part? DIMINISH is crafted for the real world!
- Use any deck (borrowed cards are fine too).
- Free selections.
- Signed cards? Absolutely!
- End with a completely examinable card.
- Instant reset.
- No threads.
- No elastic.
- No springs.
- Easy to perform.
The specially designed DIMINISH gimmick does all the heavy lifting, so you can concentrate on wowing your audience instead of fumbling with cards.
Whether you’re dazzling mates, impressing colleagues, nailing gigs, or creating snazzy social media content, DIMINISH offers a stunning visual moment that looks impossible from every angle (no pressure, right?).
A performance video of DIMINISH has racked up over 1.5 million views online, and it sold out at the Blackpool Magic Convention. Now it’s your turn to experience the vanish that’s causing a stir!

What the Pros Are Saying
"Diminish is my new favourite vanishing deck. The cards just seem to... melt away... in full view, until just the selection remains! It's fooling, magical AND 100% practical. A smash hit."
- Mark Elsdon
"I saw Damian perform this in the Magic Circle Close Up Magician of the Year competition and it was the best effect of the night, no question! Incredible."
- David Penn
"Damian has taken a fabulous illusion to new heights. Visual magic at its best. I am excited to share this with my audiences. In a word... SURReal!"
- Nick Einhorn
"The effect is beautifully direct and the reactions are outstanding. Diminish is one of those effects that looks impossible, feels organic in performance, and delivers a moment people remember. Highly recommended."
- Gary Jones
"The most practical slow motion deck vanish I have ever seen."
- Craig Petty
"Wonderfully constructed... both the routine and the gimmick."
- Jon Allen
FAQ:
1) What makes DIMINISH different?
- Easy to do. Nothing to rotate. No finger movement. The gimmick does all the work for you.
- The vanish happens for a reason. The extra 'quarter deck' phase enables the flow of the gradual deck vanish to make perfect sense. Wrong colour disappears. Wrong suit disappears. Remaining cards disappear. Selection remains.
- It looks the most real. The visuals look exactly as they should.
2) How long will DIMINISH last?
A long, long time!
No threads. No elastic. No springs.
The one thing that could conceivably wear out after a lot of use is discussed in the video and can be replaced in about 3 minutes.
DIMINISH is built to last. If you buy a second DIMINISH, it won't be to replace the first. It will be to have one in your close up case as well as your EDC (Every Day Carry).
3) Is there a red backed version?
You don't need one. DIMINISH will work with any deck.
4) Are there any clothing restrictions?
Handlings are shown with and without a jacket. You can even perform in shorts and a T-shirt (because who doesn’t love a good card trick in summer?).
