Innovative Tuck: The box features gold and silver intaglio engraving onto astral pearl stock that exudes a feeling of luxury. Each box contains 2 large die-cut windows featuring either a red or blue "worldview" that shows the deck inside. The color of this window is what determines the design of your deck. The…
