Great buyComes with pouchIllustrations are great for learning

Lovely

When I first got into tarot, I wanted to buy the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith deck of cards. There were lots of options featuring those well-known designs/symbols, but what I liked about this deck was the black border and pretty black and yellow sun design on the back. The black border somehow makes the colors pop a little more (compared to the white border). The cards come in a cardboard storage box which protects the cards, and also a black linen pouch with a mystical design. The drawstring opening on the pouch is a little snug when taking the cardboard box out, but it's doable. As with most decks, it comes with a small booklet with card meanings, but it's very basic. There are several really good books out there that provide much more detailed card interpretations. This is the deck that got me started on my tarot journey and remains a favorite, even though I've since purchased several fancier decks.

Nice quality

Otherwise , very good quality. If cared for would last a lifetime.I like the thin border around the edges.

I love the artwork. I do wish they had the upright and reverse meanings written on the cards so I don’t have to keep the guide book with the set . I am still a beginner and only reference occasionally. Those who are more experienced may not need explanations from the guidebook as much.

These were what I was looking for. I learned with a deck like this and wanted to refresh on the same. These helped a lot.

I bought these cards to start my Tarot reading journey not realizing how much I would come to love them. I've bought 4 other different decks but I always come back to these. I like having the Roman Numerals at the top and the name at the bottom. For some reason, I just really connect with these cards. Highly recommend!
