This listing is for a complete set of vintage hanafuda cards. Hanafuda is a traditional Japanese card game that blends art, strategy, and seasonal symbolism. 

This set features crisp black borders, and bright clean printing, with classic motifs in bold colors. Some cards show printed text which translates to "Specially Made by Haritsunagi" identifying the maker. The artwork is sharp and vibrant as the cards were well kept with minimal edge wear.

The outer box is a made of a light brown plastic lift top with a black inner box that includes a paulownia cut out. The one side folds down for easy access to the cards. The underside is stamped with characters meaning "good fortune", a classic mark used by many traditional game makers. The box shows minor surface wear, remaining sturdy and attractive.

This set is in excellent vintage condition with little signs of use or wear. Each card is 1.25 inches x 2 inches.

The last photo shows an example of a traditional set, however there can be variations in the artwork. For rules and instructions on the basic Japanese game, click here.
