Description

Damokles is a range of collectible playing card decks published by Thirdway Industries and designed by Giovanni Meroni. Fully illustrated, these decks are inspired by the Greek myth of the Sword of Damocles and the peril hanging over those who hold power. Each court figure represents a ruler threatened by a suspended sword, with each suit embodying a type of threat (emotions, greed, environment, spiritual forces). The jokers depict the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Enhanced with metallic inks, these decks remain usable for any classic card game (poker, bridge, tarot…) and are also genuine collectibles.
