Blue Marble Half Brick
🕑 Added 2021-04-14 16:53:41 +0000 UTCMy cynical side tried to prevent half brick boxes for a long time. On one side I still think it's more or less an admission that it is too hard for people to sell twelve decks. So the simple alternative is to cut the box in half. But without the glasses of ignorance I know not many people are able to order twelve decks at once, just to get the custom brick box for free on top. So a custom half brick box is a beautiful alternative where you pay less and get more.
I even think the only two bricks of a custom deck that I ever bought was a Smoke & Mirrors V5 and the Brown Madison Rounders brick. Both didn't even have a custom brick. :D
The idea of the Blue Marble Half Brick came from vintage Rolex Oyster packaging. The shape of the box is also a reason why six decks fit better than twelve. Metallic gold foil will be used for the Black Roses logo. Also something that I've never done before. But I think that is an important detail to stand out.
The half brick box will be available in the Dondorf Kickstarter campaign (estimated launch date June 5). As you can see, the box has nothing really to do with the Dondorf deck design. I also designed a special Dondorf brick box but I didn't like that there was too many empty white surface. Stepping away from the idea that everything needs to be connected gave me more room for creativity and you can even use the box to storage other Black Roses decks.
Hope you like it.
Much love
Daniel

Of course I already thought the same. :D But there are already the Marble Playing Cards. Even if it's still different, that makes it a little bit more difficult.

I’d actually really like to see this marbled design as the back of a deck
