Welcome to a realm where humans and machines collide. Mortalis Machina isn't just another deck of cards – it's a daring blend of flesh and metal that’s so well-crafted you'll be tempted to keep it under your pillow (or just show it off to your mates). Every inch has been meticulously polished, right down to the world's first fully functional mechanical gear tuck box made entirely of paper. Small enough to fit in your pocket, yet bursting with personality, it’ll have you saying, “Blimey, that’s impressive!” the moment you lay eyes on it.
Designed by The Paper Gear Company
The brand-new Black gilded edition boasts a dazzling metallic finish on our groundbreaking paper-engineered gear tuck box. This isn’t just another deck gathering dust on a shelf; it’s a showpiece that demands attention.
Black Gilded Edition
Taking inspiration from the timeless tug-of-war between man and machine, the design oozes steampunk sophistication: think Victorian flourishes, Baroque curves, Gothic motifs, and a hint of dark fantasy in every card. The black gilded deck comes with a foiled working gear box – perfect for those moments when you want to impress your audience (or just confuse them a bit).
The Courts & Jokers
Every court card and joker has been crafted until it felt just right (like your favourite old jumper). Jacks (Death Messengers): Hellbound, Black Cat, Horse of the Apocalypse, Raven Queens (Gods): Santa Muerte, Koli, Mengpo, Valkyrie/Hel Kings (Reapers): Reaper, Anubis, Hades, Yama Jokers: Angel & Demon
The jokers in particular carry a cheeky yet contemplative message: one holds a heart (love), whilst the other cradles treasures (wealth). Both remind us that what we chase for happiness can sometimes bite us on the backside.
The Foiled Metallic Gear Box
This is our pride and joy – a triumph of paper engineering. Opening the gear tuck box is like unwrapping a surprise gift: gears shift, bits move, and a dash of mechanical magic unfolds in your hands. Lightweight, durable, and eco-friendly, the box is the same size as a regular playing cards tuck box, yet engineered with mind-boggling precision.
