James Milaras developed his love for playing cards while practicing Cardistry in high school. He founded Joker and the Thief in 2015 to produce playing cards with unique and compelling designs, luxurious quality, and high standards. Each deck is illustrated from scratch with a meaningful theme and metaphors woven into the design during the draft sketch phase. The cards are made with casino-grade paper stock and a security feature black glue, offering a crisp and durable tactile feel. The cards glide with ease due to the specialised finish and air pockets formed by dimples on the card surface. The packaging is crafted with antique Heidelberg printing presses using premium European paper stocks and techniques such as foil stamping and embossing. Joker and the Thief's mission is to elevate the humble playing card into an extraordinary item with compelling stories and world-class artwork.
