Ringo Hanky Pocket Black by GRUM Handcrafted and Ari Phillips

Effect

The Ringo Hanky Pocket Black is a pocket-sized vanish handkerchief designed for close-up magic. A magician can make a ring or small object vanish from the handkerchief and reappear elsewhere, creating a clean and impossible moment. The effect is a modern take on classic vanish routines, offering a compact and stylish alternative to larger silk vanishes.

Full Details

The Ringo Hanky Pocket Black is a smaller version of the original Ringo Hanky, which was a larger silk used for ring vanishes. This pocket edition is designed for convenience, allowing magicians to carry it discreetly in a jacket pocket or as part of a pocket square. The hanky features high-quality craftsmanship, with a refined design that looks elegant in performance.

Unlike bulkier vanish silks, this version is optimized for walk-around and close-up settings. It retains the core functionality of the original—making objects vanish and reappear—but in a more portable form.

Who Should Consider the Trick

This trick is ideal for:

• Close-up magicians who perform walk-around or table-to-table magic.
• Performers who want a refined, pocket-friendly vanish prop.

If you already use vanish routines or want a subtle, high-quality silk for ring magic, this is a strong option.

Difficulty

The Ringo Hanky Pocket Black is designed for ease of use. The method is straightforward, making it accessible to beginners, while the quality and presentation potential make it valuable for experienced performers. No advanced sleight of hand is required, but smooth handling enhances the effect.
