Eames "the Little Toy" Playing Cards
Eames “The Little Toy” Playing Cards translate one of Charles and Ray Eames’ most inventive toys into a refined and playful graphic deck.
Originally released in 1952, The Little Toy encouraged creative construction through colorful panels, wireframes, and connectors. For this deck, those same components are reimagined as a minimalist numbering system, with the small connectors functioning as subtle edge markings that allow for quick visual reference during play.
The result is a deck that feels both intuitive and experimental, reflecting the Eames philosophy of learning through making and finding clarity through thoughtful constraints. The design rewards close attention while remaining approachable and functional.
The cards are packaged in a letterpress-printed tuck case produced on sustainable paper using vegetable-based dyes. The box design references the house Charles and Ray built as their creative base, grounding the deck in the place where many of their ideas came to life. Made in the USA.
