Tarot Grand Luxe

The cards are absolutely stunning! Only thing, when I was watching reviews of this deck , the colours looked more deeper, vibrant, but not as vibrant in real life, a bit plasticky feeling. Another thing is that for such an amazing artwork the edges could be gilded, but their not. Other than that they are amazing, love this deck!

Love them, my favourite deck of tarot cards

Gorgeous art, a joy to use, ideal for an intuitive reader like me.

Great cards. Love them. Would recommend buying.

Absolutely beautiful deck, searched for this deck for months

Beautiful art work and only disappointment is they are not gilded!

Great design on cards, good quality in a nice box the same size as cards. Good service, delivery good.

Lovely Tarot Deck. I love it.

This is my favourite mass market Ciro deck. I prefer the Mystic Palette but this is the next best thing. The guidebook is hit and miss and assumes knowledge so get a good tarot book like Anthony Louis Tarot Plain and Simple if you are still learning the card meanings.

One of the best tarot cards, the quality of cards is superb. Each and every card are self-explanatory. I am learning more and more using this deck. Must have item.

Ce tarot est super joli et tellement puissant, je l'adore !

I haven’t bought a tarot deck in well over a year. I went through a bit of a tarot phase where I studied it for a few months after never being interested in it before, and collected a lot of decks, and then I just as quickly lost interest in it again. Recently I was buying some books and this deck was recommended to me by Amazon. I was surprised there was a mass market edition of this deck. I knew the artist self-published it a while back. I bought it immediately and it came the next day. And now that I have it in my hands and have had a chance to look through it several times (in fact, I can’t stop looking at it!), I have to say that not only is this the best Ciro tarot deck yet, I think it might be my favorite deck in general! It’s absolutely gorgeous. Even the borders are beautiful, and I love how some of the art goes beyond it. The size and quality of the card stock is perfect. I have his other tarot decks, but there was always something about the other decks that didn’t work for me. Sometimes it was the art (Tarot of Dreams has some beautiful imagery, but I found the cartoonish-looking people a bit off-putting) and sometimes it was the card stock (Legacy of the Divine has gorgeous art, but is let down by its smaller size and flimsy card stock). I don’t love every card in this new deck, but overall, Tarot Grand Luxe is my favorite deck by the artist so far, and probably my favorite deck overall! It’s so beautiful, I’m actually tempted to try reading with it, and I’m not into reading cards at all! Divination in general doesn’t interest me much. The deck comes with a small booklet, where the artist talks a bit about each card and why he made some of the artistic choices he did. It’s interesting to me, but if you’re a total beginner to tarot, you’ll probably need a separate book that’s more in depth. All in all, I’m pretty happy with my purchase. I also see that there’s an updated (and borderless!) version of his Gilded tarot coming next year. Since it’s a Llewelyn deck, I know the card stock won’t be the best, but I hope that the art makes up for it. I’m glad Tarot Grand Luxe was published by U.S. Games. Their card stock is usually superior. Anyway, this is definitely the one tarot purchase that I don’t regret. UPDATE: I thought I should talk about some of the things that I don’t love in this deck. Two of my least favorite cards are the Queen of Cups and Queen of Coins. While the rest of the deck has that painted look to them (except for Three of Cups and Four of Wands, but they don’t have closeups of the faces), these two look like someone took a picture of a real woman’s face and just slapped it onto the card. Queen of Cups even has some garish makeup on. These two cards definitely standout in the deck, and not in a good way. King of Cups is also not a favorite. Another problem I had was with the kings and some of the other cards sporting the same face. My guess is they’re based on the artist? Having that same face show up on three of the kings seems a bit much to me. King of Swords is a gorgeous card (image also featured on the booklet), so it would have been nice to have more variety in the kings. I will say that I like the King and Queen of Wands! It looks like more effort was put into these than the Cups and Coins. If more care had been taken with some of the kings and queens (mainly Queen of Cups, Queen of Coins, and King of Cups), this would have been a perfect deck. But it’s still pretty great overall.
