Yu-Gi-Oh
Some cards belong in a binder.
Others deserve permanence.
Lumen I is an LED illuminated trading card display frame case designed for collectors who value presentation as much as the cards themselves. Built specifically for raw TCG and standard trading cards, it transforms your collection from storage into intentional display.
Hand-assembled in our FrameLab workshop, each piece is precision cut, aligned, sealed, and individually inspected before dispatch. A concealed LED system introduces depth and controlled contrast, allowing your collection to command attention without distraction.
No flashing effects.
No novelty lighting.
Just controlled, gallery-level presence.

Card Mount Options
Choose how your cards are presented:
• Classic Sleeve Fit
A clean, flush presentation designed for standard sleeved trading cards. Each card is held against the backboard using discreet adhesive to maintain alignment and stability, preserving a minimal and precise display.
Mount selection determines internal cut depth and presentation profile.
Lighting Architecture
The LED strip is recessed within the inner lip of the frame and concealed behind the matboard perimeter. Light diffuses across the recessed edge to create a soft halo effect without direct spotlighting.
Diodes are not visible when viewed front-on.
The standard Warm White configuration provides controlled illumination with three adjustable brightness levels.
The optional RGB upgrade allows you to select individual static colours, changing to a different colour with each button press. The RGB system operates at a single fixed brightness level and does not include flashing or cycling effects.
The result is illumination that enhances structure and depth without harsh glare.
Subtle when dimmed.
Striking when elevated.
Materials & Protection
Lumen I features a clear lightweight acrylic front sheet selected for optical clarity and reduced overall weight. This material allows colour, texture, and detail to present cleanly without distortion.
The included acrylic is not UV protective. This decision prioritises visual clarity and structural balance. Collectors requiring UV filtration may independently upgrade glazing if desired.
Three matboard options are available:
• Black with White Core
• Black with Black Core
• White with White Core
• Custom Colour White Core
All matboards are selected for long-term display stability and precision edge finish.
Please note: Black Core and Custom Colour matboards may add approximately 5 business days due to specialty ordering.
Modular System
Your collection evolves.
Your display should evolve with it.
Each frame includes one precision cut insert selected at purchase. Layout configuration determines card quantity and arrangement while the external frame body remains consistent.
Interchangeable inserts allow you to refresh configuration without replacing the entire frame.
A considered system.
Not a static product.
Production, Handling & Dispatch
Each Lumen I display is built to order and individually assembled in our FrameLab workshop. Every frame is prepared according to the selected configuration and undergoes careful alignment, finishing, and final inspection prior to dispatch.
Standard Production & Handling Time
Up to 10 business days prior to dispatch.
While many orders are completed sooner, we advise allowing the full 10 business days.
Black Core and Custom Colour matboards may add approximately 5 business days due to specialty ordering.
Priority Build (+15%)
An optional Priority Build upgrade reduces the production timeframe to 3–5 business days and moves your order to the front of the queue.
A Permanent Place for What Matters
Whether you are showcasing a milestone pull, cornerstone pieces, or a curated raw TCG layout, Lumen I is designed to give your trading cards structure, light, and permanence.
Because collecting is personal.
Display should be intentional.
