Basalt Card Frames
==================

11 low-poly card, currency and notification components for dark interfaces —
ash grey with magma orange accents. SVG plus transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x.

Basalt Card Frames is a set of 11 card, currency and notification components
drawn in the low-poly style, where the silhouette is an angular polygon and
the face is split into flat triangles. It contains four rarity card frames,
three currency counters, a notification badge and three toast banners.

Rarity is almost always encoded as a border colour, which fails twice: it
disappears in greyscale, and it competes with the item art, which is itself
coloured. This set encodes rarity as structure instead.

Four triangles meet off-centre and each carries its own flat tone, which is
exactly how a faceted mesh shades. There are no curves anywhere in the kit and
no gradient on any facet.

Inside that style this is the Basalt reading of it: a dark interface on a ash
grey palette with magma orange accents, built around a single bordered frame,
square-cornered buttons at 120x44, banded bars divided into 7 segments, and
solid icons on a 24px grid. Those measurements are why two families can share
an art style without being interchangeable: the style decides how an edge is
drawn, the numbers decide what the interface is for.

Each tier adds a countable feature — common has none, rare adds two corner
brackets, epic adds an inner rule and four brackets, legendary adds a crown
band. You can tell them apart at thumbnail size, in a screenshot, and with the
colour removed. The toast banners keep colour to a 6px edge stripe so the
message text sits at the same contrast in all three tones.

Every sprite ships as an editable SVG and as transparent PNG at 1x, 2x and 4x,
so you can drop the PNGs straight into an engine or open the vector and change
a colour. Built to the same measurements as the rest of the Basalt family,
which means this kit and the Basalt panel kit line up without either being
resized. A good fit for low-poly games.

HOW TO USE

  - Nine-slice the card frames on their flat edges only; the corner brackets
    and the crown band must stay in the fixed corners or the rarity signal
    stretches.
  - Put the item icon in the recessed art area and the name on the two label
    bars below it — the frame is sized for a 1:1 icon.
  - Use the badge as an overlay anchored to the top-right of an inventory or
    menu button, and draw the count with your own font.
