Monarchs v1 Red

Unlike the v2, this Red v1 comes in a soap-textured tuck box.

In 2011, we released the original Monarchs. They quickly became our best-selling deck, and they ushered in a new standard for luxury playing cards. This year, they’re back; and this time, dressed in red.

Featured #1 on the GQ Holiday Gift Guide 2013.

We spent time refining the world’s finest deck. It turned out better than we could ever imagine. We treated the back design with a vibrant, dramatic shade of red. We upgraded the box, introducing the highest quality paper ever used on a deck of cards. This luxurious new paper gives the tuck a rich, matte finish — incredibly soft to the touch. We printed the cards on Q1 quality paper, with ultra-thin borders, first introduced on our Animal Kingdom Playing Cards.

The goal was to make playing cards fit for a king. The world’s finest. Regal. We feel one step closer to accomplishing that mission than ever before. We know you’re going to love them.
