Fillide Companion Booklet

Fillide playing cards were inspired by the Sicilian folk legend of the origins of the almond tree and tell a timeless tale of magic and heartbreak passed down for centuries

The Fillide companion booklet takes you on a journey through the design process of the Fillide playing card project. Who do the court cards represent? What inspired the choices of colours? What does all the symbolism mean?

Here you’ll find out the thinking behind every card, the folklore and mythology behind the characters depicted and even a brief history of how the cards relate to ancient magic, tarot and Italian culture.
