King Card

Sacred Series

A worn playing card, king of hearts, with Christ crowned in thorns engraved at its centre and JESUS IS KING set across the header. Cream card body, deep red suit marks, edges softened the way a handled card softens. Turn it over and the back is the back of the same card: the deck's own design, the Alpha and the Omega glowing gold over a small lit world, set twice like a court card so it reads either way up. Both sides print large, about fourteen inches tall, front and back.

Printed: front — the face of the card · back — the back of the card, the same size. Print size: Front — 9.22 × 13.71 in; Back — 9.02 × 13.73 in.

The Drop

Twelve pieces, each starting from a painted or engraved icon, printed at the size it was drawn.

Quietly

The pieces as they are meant to be seen — on someone, going about the day.

The Name

AMSHIM

Albanian for eternity.

Not the everyday word — the literary one, the religious one, the word in jeta e amshuar.

It descends from the same ancient root as the Greek aion and the Latin aeternus. So the name arrives at the Alpha and the Omega from the other side of the same family of languages.

The mark reads LIMITLESS, which is the name said again in English.

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.”Revelation 22:13
I

II

Printed at the size it was drawn — the art, not a shrunken copy of it.

III

One at a time

About

AMSHIM — Albanian for eternity — makes sacred icon apparel. Every piece starts from a painted or engraved icon, printed at the size it was drawn and placed by measurement rather than by eye, so what you wear is the art and not a shrunken copy of it. The seal on each garment reads LIMITLESS — alpha and omega, the beginning and the end. Just below the collar, where you feel it before anyone reads it, nearly every piece carries the same line: Wear your devotion quietly. Printed one at a time, for adults and for children, on washed black and on bone.

Wear your devotion quietly
