Description
78 cards + a title card and an advertising card + an LWB in a standard cardboard tuck box.
Cards measure 12 cm tall x 6.6 cm wide. The card stock is very flexible, with a smooth, mostly-matte finish. This deck could easily be riffle-shuffled.
The card back design is completely reversible.
Justice is VIII and Strength is XI. The Fool is numbered 0.
Suits are Chalices, Pentacles, Wands, and Swords. The court cards are Knave, Knight, Queen, and King.
The minor arcana seem to follow the RWS, but focus more on a central figure in each card rather than on a true "scene." If you usually read with RWS meanings, you would find this deck quite challenging.
This succeeds as an art deck, in that the art is quite beautiful and consistent throughout. But I wouldn't recommend it as a working deck for divinatory purposes.
