🃏 A deck inspired by the many layers of Iranian history and culture, created for the Persian market and designed by V. Romanowski de Boncza.
Commissioned by the Royal Iranian Government Playing Card Monopoly under the Ministry of Finance and printed by De La Rue & Co., Ltd. around 1937, the deck features court figures inspired by different periods of Iranian and regional history.
🇮🇷🇹🇷🇲🇳 The figures collectively reflect four broad historical traditions: old Persian/Iranian dynasties, the Seljuk-Ottoman world, the Mongol-Timurid era, and later Iranian dynasties such as the Safavids and Qajars.
