Hello, I´m Christopher the designer of Pavia Playing Cards.

The history of how our ancestors discovered the world is such an adventure. I want to invite you to join the incredible world and find out who these people were and on what ships they traveled and what equidment they used.

Part of my Collection updated infrequently but occasionally, when I remember. (I haven't in months.)

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

  • Facebook:
I think some of the art is CMYK poorly converted to RGB 'cause I'm seeing mostly negative images.  But the positive images aren't exactly great, either.

Do Pavia and Senj actually mean anything - in any language?

PurpleIce - that was a good trick, stealing the words out of my mouth.  Do it again!  :))

With those indices, the deck is unplayable.

I don't mind the one-way, I like the photographs (which clearly have a theme), and even the photoshopped backs appeal to me.  But from that point on, the deck spirals horribly.  And then comes the alternate-color deck.  For my folks, the jump from white to black is just too jarring.

Some really nice ideas hidden underneath the disconnected font bling.  Complete pass.
