(1983 - )
Born in the North of France, Raphaël became seriously interested in magic after his father read an ad of a French magic shop. A few days later, he received a catalog full of professional magic tricks and his first purchase was a Brainwave Deck. At the same period, a popular French magician Sylvain Mirouf performed card tricks almost every day on a TV show and Raphaël understood all the potential of a single deck of cards.
His favorite magicians are Aldo Colombini, Peter Duffie, Jay Sankey and Dominique Duvivier. Otherwise, he is particularly interested in magic with rubber bands and ropes. He also has a great passion for cinema and is currently writing his first full feature lenght screenplay.

Cut Cat CanRaphaël Czaja![]() A self-working and examinable ACAAN effect with two decks. EFFECT: The magician thoroughly shuffles a deck of cards. Then, the spectator cuts the deck to split it into two piles. Only now is he asked to create a random number in his mind. After a very quick and simple procedure, he writes his number down on a Post-it note - let's say, "13". He sticks it onto the card he cut to - let's say, the King of Diamonds. From a second deck - on the table from the start - he deals the cards one by one. Amazingly, the 13th card is the King of Diamonds! Self-working. No gimmick. No extra card. Both... | 2020 / 9 / 3 | $5.00 to wish list | ||
Flip Flop FateRaphaël Czaja![]() A very direct divination and prediction effect with two selected cards. Two spectators freely cut to two cards. Both selections are remembered and buried into the deck. The magician points to a pair of odd-backed cards (on the table from the start) before he correctly guesses the identity of each selection and to which spectator they belong to. Finally, he turns over the pair of cards: They are a perfect match. Easy to do. Instant reset. Can be performed before or after any other card trick. At the beginning, the spectators can freely shuffle and inspect the deck. Uses regular cards with... | 2020 / 7 / 5 | $2.00 to wish list | ||
Red, Hot and WildRaphaël Czaja![]() An ungimmicked and easy-to-do double transformation with playing cards using the spectator's signature. The magician displays a red-backed Joker.

The magician buries the signed card and inserts the Joker into the deck. "When in contact with the deck, the Joker is able to take the identity of any selected card, including yours." He spreads the cards face down to show the red-backed Joker in the middle. The red-backed... | 2020 / 2 / 3 | $4.00 to wish list | ||

Spelling ButterflyRaphaël Czaja![]() A multi-prediction spelling effect with an unexpected climax! EFFECT: The magician introduces a stack of predictions to demonstrate the spectator and him are connected through their favorite playing card. Using a regular deck, the spectator combines the suit and the value of two selections to create a playing card only known to him. Then, he mentally spells its name as the magician deals one card for each letter. He stops him at the last letter/card which is turned face up: The 2♣. The magician spells out the 2♣ to get to another card and so on, until he runs out of cards. The face-up... | 2019 / 1 / 22 | $4.95 to wish list | ||

SCAMP (French)Raphaël Czaja![]() Ensuite, il étale un jeu bleu face en l'air et propose au spectateur de choisir une carte. Par exemple, le valet de cœur. Puis, il retourne ses prédictions : Un joker indique « TENEZ LE JEU ROUGE FACE EN BAS » et l'autre, « VOTRE CARTE EST LA 29ème ». Le spectateur prend le jeu rouge et le tient face en bas. Il distribue les cartes une à une face en l'air jusqu'au nombre prédit par le magicien... La 29ème carte est le valet de cœur !

Colorful JourneyRaphaël Czaja![]() The four aces are removed from a red backed deck. The Ace of Spades is placed on top of the red deck as the three other aces are lost one by one into a blue deck. After a magical gesture, the aces disappear from the blue backed deck and reappear on top of the red deck, under the Ace of Spades! Excerpts from a few Magic Cafe reviews: "How the aces "move" seems to confuse the spectator...and they have a weird look on their face, like "how is this possible!??". What I personally like about this one is that you end clean!!!" | 2017 / 8 / 7 | $2.00 to wish list | ||
Triple SuccessRaphaël Czaja![]() You remove the two Jokers and three indifferent cards from the deck so the spectator can't choose them. You write three predictions on your business cards. Then, the spectator cuts to three cards. He chooses to place one of them between the Jokers, another one among the three indifferent cards whereas the last one is reversed into the deck. The predictions match all the spectator's cards and choices! Excerpts from a few Magic Cafe reviews: "This prediction will make the spectator think that you can predict the future.
