The Buck twins discovered cardistry when they were about twelve years old and never lost their spark or passion for it.  Now they spend their time dedicated to showing people that there’s a world of art in 52 cards. And it makes sense– Dan and Dave have spent the majority of their lives now spinning cards and cutting decks and seeing the childlike spark of wonder it brings to people’s eyes, and have seen the value it brings.

Their products are sustainably manufactured– the cards are printed on recycled paper with vegetable based ink, manufactured in the US, and the company itself is part of 1% for the planet for reforestation efforts. But, what really caught our eye is that they’re focused on keeping the mind curious and fascinated. Production is important to us– the manufacturing process, materials– but it’s philosophy that we connect to. The best part of Art of Play is ironically an illusion in itself in that the answer really is right there in the name: Play, in any form, is art.
