The piece
Four years of drawing, all seventy-eight cards fully illustrated including the pips. Printed on 350 gsm blue-core stock with a linen finish and gilt edges. The Majors follow Marseille numbering; the Minors are built for reading, not for admiring.
In brief
- 78 cards, 70 × 120 mm, fully illustrated pips
- 350 gsm blue-core stock, linen finish, gilt edges
- Rigid two-piece box with magnetic closure
- 180-page companion book, thread-sewn
- First edition of 2,000 — numbered
On the pips
Most decks give the Minor Arcana a number and a suit symbol and leave the reader to memorise a table. This deck refuses that. Every pip is a scene with people in it, because a picture that shows a person deciding something teaches faster than any keyword list ever printed.

Shuffles beautifully
Verified purchaseThe blue-core stock is the real thing — no light bleed, and it riffles from day one without needing breaking in.

The book alone is worth it
Verified purchaseThread-sewn so it lies flat next to the spread. Someone thought about this.

Gilt edges stick slightly
Verified purchaseNormal for gilding, sorts itself out after a week of use. Cards are gorgeous.
