Welcome to the Paradox: The Schrödinger's Cat Collection

Step into a world where reality is defined by a flip of a card. Inspired by physicist Erwin Schrödinger's legendary 1935 thought experiment, this series explores the thin, blurred line between existence and non-existence. Are the cards in your hand alive, or are they dead? Until you look, they are both.

The Anatomy of the Collection

Crafted for cardists, magicians, and collectors who appreciate the beauty of quantum physics and high-end design.

  • Printed on Neoclassic Stock with a Supreme Finish for elite handling.

The Aesthetic: Science Meets Art

Every element of this deck pays homage to the intellectual legacy of Erwin Schrodinger.

  • The Equation: As a tribute to the mastermind himself, Schrödinger's Equation is intricately integrated into the background art and hidden within the interior of every tuck box.
  • The Silhouette: The tuck covers feature three iconic feline poses: the elegant Cat-walk, the stoic Sit, and the fluid Stretch.
  • The Courts: We have featured a diverse gallery of breeds-including the British Shorthair, Siamese, Sphynx, Ragdoll, Savannah, and Mixed breeds. Each cat is illustrated in a striking "Half-Bone, Half-Living" style, visually representing the superposition of being both dead and alive.
  • The 3-in-1 Concept: Taking inspiration from iconic decks like Memento Mori, our design utilizes a triptych concept to showcase the three possible outcomes of the experiment, creating a stunning visual narrative when the decks are displayed together.

Featured Variant: The Black - "Dead" Edition

In many traditions, black is the color of the void and the transition between worlds. Drawing inspiration from the Day of the Dead, the Black Edition symbolizes the land of the ancestors and the mysteries of pre-Hispanic spirituality. It is a somber, sophisticated tribute to the "Dead" state of the paradox, wrapped in a mantle of shadows and gold.
