Neko Royal Red Playing Cards

Neko Royal is a deck of playing cards shaped around the idea of quiet kingdoms of cats. It takes the familiar form of a card deck and fills it with small stories, crests, and symbols.

The style is influenced by vintage postage stamps and archival prints, with fine details that feel timeless and collected. This is the second release in the Neko series. The first, Neko Samurai, explored warriors and Japanese ceramics. Neko Royal moves in a different direction. It is slower, softer, and focused on presence and elegance.

The artwork follows a structured rhythm, with patterns and borders that bring a calm sense of order. The goal was to create something that feels like it could be discovered in an archive, or placed on a shelf as a small piece of design.

The cards are printed on 330gsm German black-core embossed stock with superior metallic ink. They have a smooth butter finish that makes them durable, comfortable to hold, and easy to play with. The tuck box is made from premium cardstock and finished with hot foil accents and embossing, giving the artwork depth and texture that can be seen and felt.

Available in three editions: Blue, Red, and Green.
