The House of the Rising Spade - Cartomancer V2
V3 COMING SOON!
The House of the Rising Spade Series by Stockholm17 has enjoyed universal success and fame and received United Cardists deck of the year award for 2018 & 52+Joker Diamond Award as Deck of the Year in 2019.
With increasing demand for these elegant and timeless masterpieces, we are proud to be the exclusive retailers for the Second Edition of the House of the Rising Spade - Cartomancer Variant - V2
While the Cartomancer - V2 may look the same as its predecessors, there are some changes that have been made to the cards and the tuck box to distinguish them from each other.
As with the original House of the Rising Spade Series the Cartomancer - V2 is a high quality luxurious deck of cards.
The differences:
Tuckbox:
- size, slightly thinner
- paper stock
- MMXX instead of MMXVIII on the front
- bottom flap design
- top flap design
- inner graphics
Cards:
- new paper stock: B9 true linen slimline
- Ace of Spades: date in roman numerals and some small details in the illustration
- 55th card: 3rd Joker

This deck is beautiful. The art is great and super unique. I love Stockholm 17 decks. The card stock is a bit thinner than I'm use to, but they aren't flimsy by any means and shuffle well. Packaging from Rareplayingcards was great and the deck arrived in the expected window. Tracking was a bit off, but I think that was the shipper. This is a recent interest for me and I have already started a wishlist for the future.

Certainly a must-have for collectors!

Exceptional quality! Very sturdy and well-made cards with absolutely gorgeous artwork. 10/10. Would not hesitate to buy these again.

It's very nice; quite pretty - and it has my favorite faces of any deck I've owned.
One slight issue, not sure if it's a feature. There's a misprint on the back of the 5 of diamonds, that makes it look slightly dog-edged. Almost unnoticeable if you don't already know it's there.
I looked over the box, it said they are cartomancer cards; is that edge meant to assist in tricks?
Kristin Henry
Perfection!!

These are high quality playing cards. I was initially drawn by the artwork. It had a unique Medieval and Arabic feel to the artwork that you don't commonly see. The feel and texture of the cards are of such a high standard. They may look luxurious, but they are definitely made to be used.
Scott Mantooth
very impressed with these cards...the quality is excellent
one of the more pricey decks in my collection but not
overly so...a work of art without question
Terry G.
Love this card set the most. Very playable and I love the design
Steve D.
Awesome deck. One of the most creative designs ever produced. Every collector needs this deck! Everything is exquisitely done with beautiful detail. I’m glad I got my hands on this deck. Right now it is my favorite!
Stefan B.
This is my top 1 favourite deck. Exceptional design meets absolutely high-quality workmanship. I love this design of the individual cards. These cards are individually designed and therefore deviate from the classic design. You can still play well with them. They look great - an eye-catcher. Simply beautiful.
Agathe R.
A piece of art! This deck is so beautiful and soft, it's a dream to play with. The only thing is there's no symmetry (up/down), and - more problematic from my pov - the numbers are not in the corner of the card so when playing you don't always have a clear view of what's in your hand. Still it's a high quality deck every player would want.

Unique and crisp

Great gift set… very high quality
Jan P.
Love it! Amazing! Great!
MICHAEL M.
It’s a really nice deck and I am very fond of decks with cool looking flash art (especially the face cards and jokers).
Justin M.
Very good looking deck. I really like it and I think the person I will gift it to will enjoy it very much.
However, it lacks values on four corners, which make it hard to tell what you have in hand without moving the cards around (or having a good memory).
G G.
The best looking deck I've seen hands down. The designs for each of the suit kingdoms is perfect!!
Ikhwan Z.
Glad to have the v2 version of one the best deck ever created, although I already have a bunch of v1.
Emperor J.
Some of the most beautiful cards I've bought.

House of Spades is a beautiful deck with a linen texture and foil details. The artwork is awesome and it is a unique and singular addition to my collection. Thanks for offering it.
Nicholas T.
Absolutely stunning deck of cards. Each card is it's own piece of art. Every single card has a gold foil border as well as on the back design. The tuck is embossed with gold inside and out. They handle like a dream right out of the box. Soft stock that feel like butter.

Fast service... Love love the deck
Trip G.
Beautiful artwork throughout the deck - unique court cards, distinct aces, great pips and foiling. A really gorgeous tuck with incredible art and at the top back a “cutout” keyhole design. Truly a tremendous amount of work must have gone into the details from Surat to finish of this project. Definitely one of a kind. Very happy I purchased this and also very satisfied with the service.
Tamy G.
Love the cards, absolutely beautiful! I use them for divining. Would definitely buy from you again, thank you !
Ben B.

Thank you for the high quality service. I’ll just let the photo of this beauty speak for itself.

Lorenzo Gaggiotti’s are at the highest level of playing card designs I’ve seen, so they serve as a reference for how I consider the quality of other decks. His drawings are deeply considered, and his designs incorporate geometry and symbology that make his decks exciting and intriguing, as if something mysterious or mystical is yet to be revealed. Regardless of his innate genius, the work required to consider and execute his concepts into visual narrative take huge amounts of time, and I deeply appreciate being able to acquire copies of his amazing and extremely valuable work. House of the Rising Spade is a deck that I am sure will continue to fascinate me for a long time. I have now had it for two months and it still feels truly transcendent.

Fast shipping. Wonderful product. Great details. Great design. 5 stars
Arynn B.
Bought em for a friend for their birthday. They are very cool :]
Cameron S.
Beautiful deck!
ShaMell C.
Good
Peter K.
The look and feel of this cards are just amazing. Unfortunately I cannot say the same about playing experience. The card sign and the suit are located in the middle and only on top of the card therefore when you hold many cards simultaneously you do not see which cards you are holding (corners are blank unlike other card decks where corner contains the sign and the suit)
Ruby C.
I don’t really play cards but I love putting them on my greeting cards. These cards are so beautiful! Exquisite! This one can be a wedding card or for an anniversary. I don’t sell them. They’re for friends and family.
Barbara K.
My favorite past time is playing cards.
Kelly P.
These cards are absolutely worth the purchase. I play with these cards everyday and I love the artwork by Stockholm 17. Definitely recommend!
