Gilded Tarot Royale

I bought this deck because I have the full size deck and it (was at the time of writing this) favorite. I connected right away with this one as well. The artist does beautiful work, I will buy every deck he has done... I saw comments about initials in the cards... Not sure what that was about because I see absolute class and any intials that are seen are seen in the r&w set as well. These are colorful, meaningful and easy to connect to. The card stock is good quality, I found them easy to shuffle with beautiful art work, easy to interpret even for beginners. They do not come with a book, I did not expect a mini deck to come with one. There are tons of great guides out there if you need one.

People don't really seem to get that the mini really is a small deck. It's roughly 3.5 to 5 in height and like 2.25 in in width. The whole deck fits in the palm of my small hands. I definitely think the mini deck isn't as bright as the full sized deck. It's still a very well detailed and very beautiful deck. The mini cards are on the thinner side, but they don't seem to be flimsy. I'm a casual user, however this deck has been used more than any other I own and I have had no issues. The artist did a great job with all the symbolism and details. I notice something new every time I use it.

This is a beautiful deck. I wish the book was in color but the artwork of the cards is gorgeous. The card weight and size is superior. Purchase the kit. Rewarding.

EXCELENTE PRODUCTO..... SIGAN ASI BRINDANDO PRODUCTOS DE BUENA CALIDAD Y A BUEN PRECIO!! FELICITACIONES!!! 👍🏻

They are so dag gum cute! Great for carrying with you, rather than the large decks or for clarifying and still seeing the cards underneath. The cards feel like a regular deck of cards, not the paper card stock that wears quickly and becomes hard to shuffle. They can be a little slippery when trying to shuffle such a small deck though. All I need is a durable case. I wish they came in a small fold over box, rather than the regular cardboard box that will likely fall apart on me. I will find something.

this deck, while extremely lovely, is smaller than i thought, coming in at just under 3 inches...but that's no one's fault but mine lol fortunately, i have smaller hands. it is still perfectly portable and useable, and the colors are vibrant and expressive. i look forward to purchasing the larger deck.

I'm sooo happy the publishers have made this deck available in the mini size!! The deck, in any size, is one of Marchetti's best!! I had the pleasure of speaking with him many years ago as we were both forced to miss the tarot convention in Oregon that year. His mom was ill & hospitalized in Europe and I myself was also too sick to go. But Mr Marchetti and I had emailed and I'd chosen to purchase some artwork from him. He's a complete professional as he remembered me wanting a painting of the High Priestess from this very deck & thanks to his kind, caring ways, the High Priestess now hangs on my bedroom wall!! I'd always wanted a copy of The Tarot Royale but could never afford or find a 1st edition. I'm very pleased with this edition and the mini size cards fit my tiny hands perfectly!! This deck doesn't come with a Companion book so I'll be purchasing the standard size set asap! Another of Marchetti's sets that I adore and which can be purchased on Amazon, is Legacy of the Divine Tarot! It was my first-ever Tarot set along with a Morgan-Greer deck. I guess the original RWS images just don't resonate with me as well as I like. No matter which of Ciro's decks or sets you purchase, you won't be disappointed. Many label his work as Steampunk in genre but Ciro Marchetti himself dubbed his style of artwork as "Retro Tech" long before "Steampunk" became popular. Many prolific readings to all...!! 😉

Feels right.
