What people are saying about Virtuoso decks:

I have bought hundreds of decks of cards, yet none are as amazing as yours. Both the design and feel of these are flawless and I am proud to say I have found my personal favourite deck of cards.
— PENELOPE ULLOA
The quality and feel continue to outpace the industry. Virts will always be my favorite Cardistry decks.

— MATT JIGALIN
The best performing and feeling Cardistry cards on the market. Virtuoso somehow always manage to top their already outstanding cards.

— ARSH SHAH
When they begin to lose steam, I let them rest for a few days, and they feel great again.

This is easily the most unique deck of cards I own and I’m sure it’s the most unique one any collector could own.

Why we designed Virtuoso Sea Glass

Most decks have designs that water down Cardistry — too intricate, plain, or isolated — made for magicians and gamblers to hide their actions.

But Cardistry is about expression, not invisibility.

That’s why, 12 years after designing the first Cardistry deck… we’re breaking the rules again. Our quest?

To create the purest, most expressive Cardistry deck ever.

With Virtuoso Sea Glass, every design element has been re-imagined for one purpose:

To amplify the aesthetics of every move.

All distractions have been stripped away. There are no borders, court cards, or suits of centuries past. And yes, there are no numbers.

The result? A Cardistry deck that’s all art, no compromise.

Because the best deck for Cardistry is the one designed for it. And we’ve never designed anything like Sea Glass.

Wait...
What is Sea Glass?

They’re fragments from bottles, glasses, even shipwrecks from decades ago... tossed by the waves for years… that finally find their way back to shore as unrecognizable gem-like stones.

Today, people hunt for Sea Glass as treasure. And to us, they illustrate how things that were broken — then refined through time — can emerge more beautiful than before.

Now, 12 years after breaking the rules of deck design to craft the first Cardistry deck, and refining all we’ve learned over time…

We're emerging with Virtuoso Sea Glass — something new, beautiful, and yes, unrecognizable.

How Virtuoso Sea Glass was Designed for Cardistry

Like shards of glass honed by the stirring sea, Virtuoso Sea Glass sculpts the geometric shapes of past Virtuoso decks into new organic forms — unbound by borders or lines.

Inspired by the smooth, organic contours of actual sea glass, our designer Joshua hand-illustrated four distinct forms that amplify the aesthetics of Cardistry.

We call them…

The Fin

Sea Glass - The Fin

Moving literally beyond boundaries, the seafoam green Fin extends beyond the back design and onto the faces, creating beautiful ripples and waves on both sides.

The Petal

Sea Glass - The Petal

Directional and dynamic, the magenta Petal blooms and swirls across flourishes, accentuating rotational movements and forms.

The Pebble

Sea Glass – The Pebble

Skipping across the waters of Sea Glass’s design, the cobalt blue Pebble creates rhythm across your moves.

The Rock

Sea Glass - The Rock

Anchoring the overall composition, the amber Rock steadies the flow, grounding the shapes and creating visual balance.

Yet while each shape is beautiful in isolation, they look even better when working together.

Adaptive Aesthetics

How Virtuoso Sea Glass amplifies your Cardistry

Designed with Adaptive Aesthetics, each card connects to form patterns, change colors… then swirls and strobes in spins, flips, and twirls. Here’s how.

No borders. All design.

Most decks need borders to create a sense of “visual rhythm”. But because Sea Glass was designed for Cardistry, it doesn’t require any.

So we gave it an Edge-to-Edge design with White Tipped Corners, giving you seamless yet rhythmic patterns across countless card flourishes.

Paint the Air

Springs, dribbles, and cascades visually connect in 3D space, while shapes stream down the sides.

Color-changing. Shape-shifting.

Spreads and fans change colors and form different patterns depending on the direction they flow in. On that note, look again — these two fans were formed with just one deck of cards: Virtuoso Sea Glass.

Lines that Strobe and Magnify

In displays, the long white lines extend outward, magnifying each form… while card spins create a strobing “wagon wheel” optical illusion on camera.

Designed from Back to Front

Unlike most decks with disjointed fronts and backs, Virtuoso Sea Glass was designed as a singular three-dimensional object. How?

Wraparound Fin

The Fin from the back literally breaks boundaries and flows over to the faces, framing each card beautifully.

Orbital Icons and Ring

Gone are old school suits & pips from centuries ago. In their place? Colorful Icons encircling a Ring in progressively larger arrays — creating surreal rotations when spun and animations when you riffle through the cards…

Like waves tumbling shards in circles, refining them into silhouettes of Sea Glass beneath.

Make Waves. Not Numbers.

You might not have noticed, but this deck has no numbers. Why? Because we removed anything that doesn't add to Cardistry — making way for this deck to make waves.

Fan with the full deck, and a cresting wave appears. Fan with fewer cards, and rhythmic ripples form. Spread them, and your cards flow as a stream.

Handling & Durability

How is it that right out of the box, Virtuoso cards spread like butter, spring like a stream, weave like water… then with just a gentle squeeze, cut cleanly and seal together when flying through the air?

The secret is something we call…

Liquid Paper

Unlike most decks made of generic paper and plastic coatings which take forever to break in before they’re usable…

Virtuoso Sea Glass is crafted with Liquid Paper — our secret recipe of Cardistry-grade paper, textures, coatings, finishes, and even ink ratios, all crafted with a patented production process.

So whether it’s crisp cuts, fluid spreads, perfect faros, big displays, or full-blown aerials, Virtuoso Sea Glass handles like nothing you’ve ever felt.

Spreads like water. Seals on demand.

Nothing pushes a deck to its limits like Cardistry. That’s why we start with sourcing perfectly balanced paper with just the right thickness, weight, and snap.

Each card is then specially coated and pressed with micro air pockets. The result? Cards that glide on a thin bed of air, giving you creamy fans and spreads, without ever feeling too slippery.

A gentle squeeze instantly releases this air, creating a “seal” between each card for ultra clean packets for cuts and aerials.

Industry-beating durability

You know how most cards get sticky real quickly? Clumping minutes after you take them outdoors?

That’s because they suffer with the shifting humidity levels of daily life. It’s why they warp like marshmallows over a campfire and create the “click of doom”.

Our solution? A unique production process that considers the humidity levels within each card and how they react with the environment. It’s why Virtuoso Sea Glass clumps less, last longer, and “recharges” like nothing else.

Safe for your hands. And so eco-friendly, it's edible.

With Virtuoso Sea Glass, you have peace of mind. Our cards are coated with non-toxic plant-based inks, safe for your hands even after hours of handling.

And because they’re made of FSC-certified sustainably-forested paper, they’re good for the environment too. In fact, our cards are so eco-friendly, they’re edible.

The best deck for Cardistry is the one designed for it.

And we've never designed anything like Virtuoso Sea Glass.
Experience it for yourself. Or enjoy it as art.

FAQ

If I'm a beginner, should I still get the Virtuoso deck? 

That depends. Many beginners we’ve chatted with feel “unworthy” to use Virtuoso decks.

But here's the thing: they're not meant for pedestals. They're meant to be used.

It’s why we price Virtuoso decks so accessibly, despite having industry-leading design, materials, and durability:

We believe that Cardists should use their Virtuoso decks, not hoard them.

And that’s not the only reason. You see, we also believe that a deck with great handling makes learning Cardistry easier and more fun — allowing you to get better, faster.

Besides, sticky and clumpy dollar-store decks only slow you down and die quickly. So while they appear cheap… they’re more expensive in the long run.

Do you need Virtuoso Sea Glass as a beginner? No. Cardistry decks didn’t even exist when we started (which is why we created them).

But when practising Cardistry becomes something you love instead of a chore? You'll be glad you invested in Virtuoso Sea Glass.

What else can I purchase besides Virtuoso Sea Glass?

We’ve got Cardistry tutorials and Uncut Sheets!

Is shopping on your site safe?

Yes. In fact, your order is securely processed using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol with 256-bit encryption, the highest level commercially available.

Global shipping costs are rising, and our shipping partners just got back to us with some big cost increases. The good news? We’re PAYING for those shipping cost increases for you.

And if you order 12 Virtuoso Sea Glass decks… we’re paying for your ENTIRE shipping cost, no matter which country you’re from!

What payment methods do you accept?

For credit/debit cards, you can use Visa, MasterCard, and American Express. Our payment platform does not allow Discover, Diners Club, and JCB.

And for our friends in China, we’ve got both AliPay and WeChat as payment options!

After ordering, how long will it take for my order to ship out?

As this we have to process a high volume of orders during launches like these, it might take a week or two to finishing shipping out all our orders.

AFTER my order ships, how long does shipping take? 

If you’re in the USA, it should take 3-5 days (weekends excluded) for your package to arrive.

If you live outside the USA, a safe estimate would be 6-10 working days (weekends excluded).

How will I know when it is shipped? Will I get a tracking number?

The moment your package is shipped, our system will automatically send you an email with your tracking number.

What if the package doesn’t arrive exactly on time?

In such scenarios, the package usually arrives after another week.

If it still doesn’t arrive, get in touch with us at support@thevirts.zendesk.com and we’ll gladly send you a replacement package right away.

What if my decks arrive damaged? Can I get replacements?

Definitely. It’s the least we could do for you.

As most damage happens during the shipping process, the shipping company has an obligation to help fix it. However, we do need you to send us photos of the damage so we can hold the shipping company accountable.

Contact us at support@thevirts.zendesk.com and we’ll get you sorted!
