Piatnik Polonia Playing Cards celebrate centuries of Polish history with a handsome double-deck set filled with portraits of kings, queens, and national symbols. Designed in Vienna and printed on smooth bridge-size stock, this set is ideal for anyone who loves classic card games and Polish heritage.
Design & Artwork
Each court card depicts a different figure from Poland’s royal past, from early rulers like Bolesław Chrobry to later monarchs and nobles, complete with names and life dates printed along the card edge. Aces and number cards retain clear international indices and pips, making the decks fully practical for bridge, whist, and other traditional games while still serving as a miniature illustrated history lesson.
Both decks feature ornate backs showcasing the crowned white eagle of Poland against rich red and green backgrounds with decorative crowns and flourishes. The double-deck presentation box echoes this theme, pairing the Polish flag with a large eagle crest and portrait cards fanned across the front, making the set ready for gifting.
