3. 義和 Xi He – 9 Tailed Fox – Black, Gold Gilded, limited edition of 888

🌟 The full title is actually 云梦山海, which is a very poetic saying that translates to this: “Drifting along the clouds, traversing vast mountains and seas.” Unfortunately, it doesn’t make for very succinct titles, so I’ll (reluctantly) stick to the “Cloud/Sea series” as it has come to be known.

🌟 Both Xi He (Black tuck, Gold Gilded) and Qiong Gou (Grey tuck, Regular) have double tuck cases featuring 3 layers of cut out hollowed design. This echos the artform of Chinese paper cutting. The redesigned double-layer inner and outer tuck case, with the addition of UV technology on high quality Pearlescent paper stock, makes it feel lifelike with the embossing.

🌟 The Card back design for Xi He (Black tuck, Gold Gilded) is borderless, and is specially designed for Cardistry, to ensure a smooth fanning even with Gold Gilded Edges. Qiong Gou (Grey tuck, Regular) features white borders. For both Xi He and Qiong Gou, 7 decks make up a perfect panorama scene.

🌟 Printed by MPC, the numbered universal edition is limited to 2500 copies worldwide. Numbered on bottom of tuck case.

🌟 Qiong Gou means “New Moon”. It’s an extremely antiquated saying, and no longer in use. Mostly you will find it in ancient classical poetry during the Song period.
