Ellusionist Absinthe  Playing Cards Deck The Absinthe playing card deck by Ellusionist is specifically designed with card players, magicians and card enthusiasts in mind. Absinthe - the Green Fairy of spirits - has long been associated with the bohemian lifestyle, with famous drinkers including Picasso, Van Gogh, Hemingway, Oscar Wilde and Toulouse-Lautrec. These cards embody the allure of the emerald drink, the Ace of Spades modelled after the filigree of the absinthe spoon. With its heavy embossing and text that pokes fun at itself, even the box appears to have had a few drinks! Deck previously only available as part of a set. Be Enchanted by the Green Fairy. Designed by Ellusionist, this deck is too cool for display, it has to be shown off!
