Get ready to be dazzled by a playing card collection that’s more captivating than a soap opera plot twist! This exquisite set features:

  • A box that spins around like it’s got a mind of its own, symbolising the eternal dance of the sun and the moon (and yes, it’s as cool as it sounds).
  • A premium luminous black cardboard collector's box that screams sophistication — perfect for impressing your mates.
  • One gilded Maya Sun deck and one gilded Maya Moon deck, because why have one when you can have two?
  • Foil, 3D embossing, and luminous detailing on the tuck case, making it a delight for the eyes (seriously, you’ll want to show this off).
  • Every face card features an original illustration of a Maya god or goddess, so you can feel literally divine when you play.
  • Premium Pantone metallic ink on the back, because who doesn’t love a bit of shimmer?
  • Printed by the Bacon Playing Card Company (BPCC) in China — yes, that’s right, bacon is involved (not the edible kind, but we can dream).

Now, if you’re wondering what’s the deal with all this Maya mythology, here’s the scoop: it’s packed with tales of gods, nature’s forces, and heroes having a right old chinwag. The Mayans had a knack for spinning stories that defined how humans interacted with their world, often with a moral or two thrown in for good measure.

Scholars might tell you that the gods and goddesses had names and forms that could change quicker than you can say ‘abracadabra,’ but at the heart of it all was a belief that the universe had its own order. And keeping on the good side of the gods? Absolutely crucial for maintaining balance and harmony (no pressure).

Inspired by this rich mythology, you’ll find two decks in this collection: the colourful Sun Deck and the moody Moon Deck. The Mayans were serious sky-watchers, convinced that celestial bodies were divine and that their movements were basically a cosmic soap opera — all of which played a massive role in human affairs. After all, who wouldn’t want to plan their life around celestial events? Dynasties even claimed they were descended from the sun or the moon!

So, whether you fancy a game of cards or just want to impress your friends with a touch of ancient wisdom, this Maya Playing Card Collection Set is your new best mate!
