Hidden Playing Cards

Bicycle Hidden Playing Cards draw inspiration from the symbolism and visual language of secretive societies, focusing on coded imagery rather than overt storytelling.

The custom elements of the deck are centred around the card backs, Ace of Spades, Jokers, and court cards, which feature illustrations influenced by Freemasonry and esoteric iconography. These designs use recurring motifs such as eyes, geometric forms, and ritual symbols, rendered in a restrained black, red, and gold palette.

Number cards retain the familiar standard Bicycle faces, ensuring full readability and comfort during play. This makes the deck equally suitable for card games, magic, and casual handling, without sacrificing usability for theme.

Printed by the United States Playing Card Company, the deck uses Bicycle’s Air-Cushion Finish, offering reliable handling, smooth shuffles, and long-term durability. The tuck case completes the presentation with matching symbolic artwork and a subdued, understated finish.
