Rose Playing Cards by TCChttps://tccplayingcard.com/products/rose-playing-cards-by-tccCustom playing cards in honor of the exquisite beauty and passion of the rosePrice: $9 (Standard Edition), $22 (Gilded Edition)

Rose Playing Cards is the latest deck just released by TCC, a China-based playing card producer. Here's how the ad copy describes it:
"
The blooming of a rose is always breathtaking, unfolding its delicate petals and rich fragrance to express deep emotions and love. When the artistry of gold foil meets the elegance of a rose, it radiates a brilliance that captivates the heart. Paired with exquisite embossed designs, the luster and intricate textures of the petals seem to softly whisper enchanting tales of love."
The tuck box has several special features to give added luxury befitting the rose, including a custom seal and embossing. But what really caught my eye is what's been done with the red roses on the tuck box. These are finished with shiny red foil, and because of the embossing, when held up to the light they reflect the light and you get a real sense of color and shape. Beautifully done, and it makes an instant positive impression!

The inside of the tuck box has a lovely pattern comprised of roses and leaves, made with shiny red foil set on a deep maroon colour.

Perhaps my favourite part of the deck is the card backs. Pictures really don't do it justice! I was simply expecting the rose pattern seen in this photo. But what I didn't expect is that the red roses on the card backs are actually done with a red foil. So when the cards catch the light, it looks amazing!

All the Aces have special touches to give a very custom feel.

The court cards are unusual - you'll either love them or hate them - but the rose theme continues to be strong here.


I like the customization that's been done with the number cards. Not only is the pip arrangement non-standard, but the mention of "Rose Playing Cards" on each card works.

The two jokers each feature a bouquet of roses.

Also included are two ad cards, one with some nice quotes about the allure of the rose, as the embodiment of romance.
While the foil on the Standard Edition already makes it stand out from your average deck, the real highlight for me is the Gilded Edition, which has patterned gilding on the edges. The ad copy again:
"
Like sunlight cascading over diamond-edged petals, deep brown and crimson intertwine, ultimately transforming into a visual language of passion and romance. Limited to 200, each deck comes with a unique serial number."
