01 / The project

Crafted for loyalty.
Made to be kept.

Rollbit is an online crypto casino. As part of its offering, it gives a high-end, custom-made poker set to its top customer partners.

Rollbit's UK representative found us through social media and visited the workshop to discuss the project. After several in-depth design sessions, we arrived at a solution that gave the set the look and feel of an exquisite presentation piece, and kept it cost-effective.

02 / The process

From the brief
to the finished piece.

Designed and made in our Penrith workshop, with specialist partners where the piece needs them.

    The brief

    A custom poker set for Rollbit's top customer partners. It had to look and feel exceptional, work as a real poker set, and stay cost-effective to make.

    Design development

    We worked through several in-depth design sessions with Rollbit's UK representative. Together we chose materials that work hand in hand with each other: solid walnut, gold-plated hardware, embossed leather and brass.

    Why early engagement matters

    Rollbit brought us in early. That let us take part in the design and choose elegant materials that combine for a stunning result. It is the advantage of involving the Helm Works team from the start.
