Golden Art Nouveau Tarot (Golden Art Nouveau Tarot, 1)
A**X
Gently Embossed
The box: Box comes wrapped in plastic. No dented corners. Has the same beautiful gold foil as advertised for the cards. Embossed with delicate pattern overlaying the gold.Inside the box: Cards inside are also wrapped in plastic. Comes with an info card about their website which you can use to expand your knowledge on tarot through this specific deck but... at a price? Seems this membership/subscription costs money though since the card comes with a coupon code. Also included; a pamphlet in English, Italian, Spanish, French, and Portuguese; that describes what is happening on each card and a single sentence about how to interpret its meaning. (Kind of useless in my opinion.) All cards were present plus an extra card that is a reprint of the front of the box.The cards: The gold on the cards is just as advertised and as beautiful as the box. Embossed as well. Cards fit nicely in my giant hands. Bigger than a “regular” playing card size but smaller than my past tarot cards. Artwork is impeccable and beautifully printed on both the front and back. Both sides come lightly laminated. Cards are made with a lightweight card stock. Nice for easy shuffling although I think it could be a liiiiiiiiiittle bit heavier. There is a slight white boarder around them which helps minimize any bent corners taking away from their beauty.Final thoughts: I’m so happy. 10/10

Soooo beautiful!! The mini!
Everyone is always upset these don't have the gold foil like the standard size BUT they are golden and reflective in their own way. Absolutely beautiful! I bought these before investing in the larger size and they are just absolutely gorgeous. I love the art style. Perfect size for my small hands!

Perfect
Gorgeous cards. Shuffles like a dream and the images are beautiful but not too far off from the traditional tarot images.

A Beautiful Deck
This product arrived promptly and as expected with out issues. Arrived in a bubble mailer and undamaged.I was originally worried about the quality of the foil but the prints look fantastic against it and it doesn't seem cheap in the context of the artwork. It compliments the illustrations nicely and is not overly reflective while still maintaining that metallic finish. The images themselves are clean and crisp and hold the colors vibrantly.The card stock isn't as thick as some tarot cards, but it's nice and smooth as opposed to the textured look that playing cards can have. I think it'd have benefited from being a touch thicker, but is perfectly serviceable as is. Really the only thing that I have any issue with.The book it provides is in English, Italian, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. The descriptions of the cards are exactly that; more common descriptors of generalized events of the cards than direct translations of meaning, so a novice like myself will need a few supplemental sources to help learn meanings and intricacies.The box is guided in the same foil as the cards and is about the same quality as a regular deck of cards' box. The illustrations on it are of the same quality of the cards themselves and the text is thoughtfully placed to reduce visual noise and works well as a design and not just a hastily constructed sales pitch.

An all-time favorite for me
I really, really love this deck. I'm a big fan of the traditional Rider Waite deck, and this is very close to that one, but the art absolutely pops out at you and just seems alive in a way. Some cards feel like you could reach into them, almost. The whole thing is very beautifully done.My only real complaint is they don't shuffle too well if it's been humid at all. And I sometimes have to take the time to wipe them all down after many uses because otherwise they stick while shuffling. A small price to pay though. This was my third deck, I now have over 15 and this is my most used one. If you like the RW, this is a great addition to your collection because the art is so similar but can be more impactful, IMO. For me, the symbolism of the cards, beyond their basic understood meaning tend to stand out more.

Just what I wanted
These small cards are just right to travel with me. I love the illustrations. Similar symbols to Rider-Waite, but in a style I adore. Cute little box. Multi-lingual simple introduction booklet. Cards are only numbered, so study up. No gold, but great for the price!
