SPACEFEST embodies the enchanting dreams of a festival set against the infinite cosmos. Perhaps it is the dazzling vision our imaginations have painted, or maybe, in some far-off expanse out there, a grand celebration is indeed taking place. Drawing inspiration from the annual carnivals of Earth, SPACEFEST is an interplanetary festival where diverse species from every corner of the universe converge to celebrate, exchange cultures, and foster the peace and friendship that unite the entire galaxy.
The fusion of vibrant colors and light in the artwork vividly captures the joyful and lively atmosphere of festivals, particularly carnivals, while incorporating elements of glowing and translucent materials reminiscent of mysterious extraterrestrial substances.
Box Base
Crafted from durable MDF wood, this unique circular box offers complete resistance to termites and warping. After careful sanding to achieve a smooth surface, the base undergoes a meticulous process of lacquer application and lining, resulting in a flawless foundation for the final striking red finish. This captivating crimson hue evokes a sense of mystery and thrill that embodies the very essence of poker gameplay, promising an enthralling entertainment space.
Box Lid
To accentuate every intricate detail of the artwork, our artisans have masterfully employed lacquer techniques. Through an elaborate process involving 26 steps of painting and sanding, each stage demands meticulous attention to detail, ensuring the lid achieves a stunning mirror-like effect. Following this, the product is polished to perfection with water and specialized cream, creating a mesmerizing visual masterpiece.
Chips
Radiating vibrancy in any entertainment setting, each chip is crafted from premium ABS plastic. Notably, the iron core provides a satisfying weight that produces an enticing sound with every toss, making each round of play more engaging and thrilling than ever.
Dealer - Big Blind - Small Blind
Made from stainless steel, the buttons inherit resistance to corrosion and oxidation, maintaining their brilliant shine over time. Additionally, the surface is UV-printed on eco-friendly PU leather, enhancing aesthetic appeal while providing a protective layer against dirt and water, merging beauty with resilience in every detail.
Deck of Playing Cards
Crafted from durable PVC, these cards feature a refined matte finish that allows for seamless shuffling with every play. The intricate designs on both the cards and the card box harmonize beautifully with the artwork on the lid, creating a visually cohesive SPACEFEST Poker that delivers a top-tier, complete gaming experience.
In the heart of the starry abyss, the characters featured at SPACEFEST are vividly illustrated on each playing card, reflecting the spirit of “A black canvas with bright colors.” Drawing inspiration from the distinct traits of various earthly creatures, combined with the ethereal materials of the cosmos, the artist has created unique species representations for each card suit, making SPACEFEST a diverse and rich convergence where sparks of joy awaken the very depths of existence.
HEARTS
Inspired by the essence of humanity, the Hearts suit radiates the vibrant energy of Carnival festivities. Dressed in Space Age attire and donning astronaut helmets for journeys into the infinite cosmos, it shines with brilliant golden accents, embodying the human spirit of creativity, boundless enthusiasm, and an unrelenting quest for joy.
DIAMONDS
Based on the imagery of Earth's animal species, the Diamonds suit resonates with the strong imprint of nature: the fierce fur of wild creatures, the soft feathers of soaring birds, and the shimmering scales of fish beneath the ocean's depths. This fusion of animal biology and alien fantasy symbolizes the interconnectedness of life across planets, exuding a regal and otherworldly charm.
CLUBS
Embodying characteristics similar to those of plants and insects, the Clubs suit emerges with delicate patterns reminiscent of flora, intertwined with the rugged textures of insect life. Symbolizing the adaptability of nature, this suit captures the vigorous growth of alien ecosystems in outer space.
SPADES
Much like the symbiosis between fungi and unicellular organisms, the Spades suit signifies an inseparable bond that thrives and evolves in the undefined expanse of the universe. Adorned with bioluminescent designs and abstract, swirling shapes, this suit exemplifies the primal forces of nature, spreading life and igniting hope amidst the dark, mysterious cosmos.
To authentically portray the dynamic spirit of festivals, every design element of SPACEFEST has been intricately sketched, creating a kaleidoscope of color and excitement that brings the cosmic celebration to life. The characters, inspired by the intricate layers of Earth's ecosystems, add diversity to this enchanting space festival.
As Maztermind’s pioneering creation to incorporate lacquer techniques into its handcrafted processes, the SPACEFEST Poker exemplifies the artisans’ commitment to innovation and excellence, promising an experience that is not only visually stunning but also deeply resonant.
Surface Sanding
After being meticulously shaped, the MDF wood base is coated with a protective AB adhesive to make it waterproof. Any surface imperfections are seamlessly filled with a specialized adhesive mixture. Throughout the process, our artisans immerse the product in water to remove even the tiniest dust particles, ensuring a spotless finish. To safeguard the wood core from moisture damage, a precise application of filler and primer is applied between each sanding step. Every stage is executed with care, resulting in a flawlessly smooth surface that reflects the artistry behind the craft.

Product Coloring
Once the surface is smoothly sanded, our artisans apply the first layer of base color primer and carefully inspect the wood base again. After confirming there are no additional flaws, the initial coating is lightly abraded to create a surface ready to grip the second base coat. Finally, when the wood base has fully absorbed the primer layers, the artisans apply the final color coat, imbuing the surface with a refined and subtle hue.

Design Completion
When the paint has dried, the artwork on the lid is UV-printed with sharp, lasting color. To achieve a mirror-like sheen, three layers of gloss are expertly applied to the surface. The product then undergoes a three-stage water polishing process, followed by buffing with specialized cream. This ensures that the final finish is not only dust-free but also radiates a perfect gloss, accentuating every intricate detail of the lid's design with clarity.
