Sakura V2 Playing Cards

Sakura V2 Playing Cards by Francis Garcia is a limited edition, printed by USPCC. The deck visually follows the first edition: The back design is in a cherry blossom style, with a delicate pattern of silhouetted tree branches running inwards from the edge of the cards – a unique design that characterizes Sakura.

Color scheme of the Winter Edition: Instead of the pink tones of the first edition, Sakura V2 features a frosty palette of blue, white, and gray tones, reminiscent of a winter landscape.

Deck box: Similar to the first edition, but with a frosty twist. The front of the box features a new design; Mount Fuji remains in the background, while the cherry blossom trees are completely covered in snow. The red shrine serves as a central symbol of Japanese culture.

Workmanship and print quality: Printed by USPCC, with Bee Casino Crushed Stock and Air-Cushion Finish for smooth, controllable handling – ideal for precise cardistry parts and professional magic.

Limitation & Funding: Limited edition, funded via Kickstarter – a special collectible for lovers of modern card art and Japanese-inspired designs.

The meaning of Sakura: Sakura means cherry blossom – a symbol of life, its transience, and a certain philosophy of life. This Winter Edition continues this story by translating the delicate aesthetic of the cherry blossom into a frosty season.
