LUXURIOUS WOODS

Our Classic double cards box features Alexandra’s signature abstract design, translated in two favourite varieties of wood that she regularly returns to in her marquetry creations: rich, warm walnut and rippled sycamore.

A SUPERB FINISH

Handmade by Alexandra’s highly skilled master joiners, the marquetry is perfectly aligned for a seamless finish where the lid meets the box, which is further elevated with thoughtful design details, including polished brass hinges and intricate dovetail joints on the removable wooden tray.

A RARE HANDCRAFT

Hand-drawn by Alexandra before being translated in wood, the design honours the suits in a pack of cards. The marquetry expert recreates the “trompe l’oeil” effect in Alexandra’s design using a technique known as hot sand shading, which brings a beautiful sense of three-dimensionality to the inlaid cards on the sides of the box.

Endless opportunities for play

The wooden tray is designed to neatly store two packs of our limited-edition Signature cards in two different colourways. To keep track of your card games, the tray lifts up to reveal a Signature score pad, which is printed with some of Alexandra’s best-known designs on sustainable Colorplan paper.
