DESIGN STORY

Black, Red and Unmistakably Eintracht

Football and playing cards share something fundamental: they bring people together.

The SGE Edition translates the unmistakable identity of Eintracht Frankfurt into the world of handcrafted leather games.

The deep black Floater leather creates a refined foundation, while red contrast details and official club branding introduce the visual identity of Eintracht Frankfurt without turning the set into conventional fan merchandise.

Open the case and everything has its place: two Eintracht Frankfurt playing card decks, a scorebook and a pencil, carefully arranged within the fitted interior.

The result is a collector's edition that feels distinctly Eintracht while remaining unmistakably MELIA.

Official club identity. Timeless game culture.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Genuine Leather. Official Club Design.

Every Eintracht Frankfurt × MELIA Playing Cards Set is handcrafted in Europe from carefully selected full-grain leather.

For the SGE Edition, we use premium black Floater leather with a fine natural grain and subtly textured surface.

The deep black leather gives the case a clean, sophisticated character, while the red accents and official Eintracht Frankfurt details create a strong but controlled contrast.

Edges, seams, securing bands and the zip-around construction are carefully assembled to create a case that feels substantial in the hand while remaining compact enough to travel.

Natural variations in grain and surface are part of the character of genuine leather and make every set subtly unique.

Designed Around the Game

Good organisation disappears the moment the game begins.

The interior of the SGE Edition combines elegant organisation with added flexibility.

Instead of fixed card compartments, two flexible securing bands hold the card decks securely in place. This adaptable construction allows the case to accommodate different card formats and sizes while keeping the included Eintracht Frankfurt decks beautifully organised.

The integrated scorebook and pencil ensure that everything required for an evening of cards stays together.

With the case closed, the complete set measures approximately 17 × 13 × 4 cm, transforming a full playing card set into a compact leather travel companion.

Whether brought out at home, packed for a weekend away or taken along for an away game, everything needed for the next round is already inside.

Flexible Card Storage

One of the defining features of the SGE edition is its adaptable card storage system.

Rather than using two fixed, enclosed card compartments, the interior features two flexible securing bands designed to hold different types of playing card decks securely in place.

This allows the case to accommodate a wider range of card formats and makes it suitable not only for the included Eintracht Frankfurt x MELIA playing cards but also for decks from many established manufacturers.

Depending on deck dimensions and packaging, the case can accommodate cards from brands such as:

  • Piatnik
  • Fournier
  • Copag
  • Bicycle
  • Ravensburger
  • ASS Altenburger
  • Modiano
  • Bullets
  • UNO
  • Phase 10
  • and many other popular card formats

The result is a playing card case that adapts to the game rather than limiting the player to one specific deck format.

The Leather

The SGE Edition is crafted from premium black full-grain Floater leather sourced from LWG Gold Certified tanneries.

Floater leather is characterised by its fine natural grain and subtly textured surface, giving the case a refined yet durable appearance.

Its deep black colour creates the ideal backdrop for the red contrast details and official Eintracht Frankfurt branding, allowing the club identity to stand out without overpowering the overall design.

Unlike more pronounced vintage leathers, Floater leather maintains a cleaner and more consistent appearance over time while preserving the tactile character of genuine full-grain leather.

Small variations in grain and texture are natural characteristics of genuine leather rather than imperfections.

Handmade in Europe

Not mass-produced.

Every SGE Edition is individually handcrafted by experienced leather artisans using traditional techniques combined with modern precision.

From cutting and assembling the leather to constructing the flexible interior and integrating the official club details, every element contributes to a limited edition designed for countless games, evenings and journeys.

    OFFICIAL COLLABORATION

    Eintracht Frankfurt × MELIA

    This special edition was created as an officially licensed collaboration between Eintracht Frankfurt and MELIA Games.

    From the black and red leather design to the official Eintracht Frankfurt crest, exclusive playing cards and dedicated SGE × MELIA presentation packaging, every element has been developed to bring club identity into a genuine handcrafted game object.

    Created for fans, collectors, travellers and lovers of classic games, it combines the emotional connection of Eintracht Frankfurt with the craftsmanship and design philosophy of MELIA.

    This is more than fan merchandise.

    It is a game to play, an object to keep and a piece of Eintracht to take with you.

    Limited Edition

    The Eintracht Frankfurt × MELIA Playing Cards Set is produced as a limited edition and exclusively available from MELIA Games.

    Once the edition is sold out, availability cannot be guaranteed.

    CARE

    Leather Care

    Our premium full-grain Floater leather is designed for durability and everyday use.

    Store your Eintracht Frankfurt × MELIA Playing Cards Set in a dry environment and avoid prolonged direct sunlight, excessive heat or moisture.

    For light surface dirt, gently wipe the leather with a clean, soft and dry cloth. When required, use a high-quality leather care product suitable for full-grain leather.

    Avoid aggressive cleaning agents or products that may alter the natural grain or colour of the leather.

    With proper care, the black Floater leather will preserve its refined appearance and tactile character for years to come.

    The SGE Edition features exclusive Eintracht Frankfurt branding and official licensed design details while retaining MELIA's handcrafted leather construction.

    Are MELIA playing card sets made from genuine leather?

    Yes. MELIA Playing Card Sets are handcrafted using carefully selected genuine leather. Depending on the edition, we use different leather types and finishes including full-grain, nubuck and other premium leathers selected for their character, durability and tactile quality.

    What leather is used?

    We exclusively use premium European leather sourced from LWG Gold Certified tanneries. Depending on the collection, we use full-grain leather, nubuck leather or premium floater leather.

    Is the SGE Edition suitable for travel?

    Yes. Despite containing two decks, a scorebook and pencil, the complete set closes into a compact leather case measuring approximately 17 × 13 × 4 cm.

    The zip-around construction keeps everything securely together, making it an elegant companion for holidays, hotels and weekend trips.

    What is included with the SGE Edition?

    The SGE Edition includes two complete decks of 55 playing cards each — 52 standard playing cards plus 3 jokers per deck with Eintracht Frankfurt eagle detailing on the back of the cards (on black/white background)— together with a scorebook and pencil.

    Everything is organised within the handcrafted leather case and supplied with a premium cotton storage bag and Eintracht Frankfurt x MELIA gift box.

    How many decks of cards does the SGE Edition accommodate and what size playing cards fit the leather case?

    The MELIA Playing Cards Set Deluxe is designed to hold two standard decks of playing cards measuring approximately 5.9 × 9.1 cm.

    The case can also accommodate many similarly sized playing cards from established card manufacturers.

    Absolutely. Each set is presented in a premium gift box and combines official club identity with handcrafted European luxury craftsmanship.

    Can I personalise my SGE Edition?

    The SGE Edition in Black is not available for personalisation. Due to the deep black finish of the leather, laser engraving would not achieve the refined contrast and clarity we require for MELIA personalisation.

    If you are looking for a personalised Playing Cards Set, we recommend selecting one of our other leather colours suitable for engraving.

    How do I care for the leather?

    Store your backgammon set in a dry environment away from prolonged direct sunlight.

    Occasionally treat the leather with a high-quality leather care product to preserve its natural appearance and allow it to develop its characteristic patina over time.

    Does the product come with a warranty?

    Yes. Every MELIA product is carefully inspected before shipment. If your order arrives with a manufacturing defect or has been damaged during transport, please contact our customer service and we will be happy to assist you with a suitable solution.
