CARDS ONLY. The Victorian Romantic Tarot fourth edition standard deck.

This listing is for the cards ONLY. You will get a little white booklet but you will not receive the wooden box shown in these images.

The difference between this edition of the deck (published in 2021) and the small reprint done in 2024 is that the colour of the back of the cards is different and the 2024 reprint has two Queen of Pentacles cards.

Please note that having an item in your cart does not reserve it, as other people may be trying to purchase at the same time.

The Victorian Romantic Tarot has, since its original publication become one of the most well-loved and used tarot decks, establishing a reputation for its readability and depth.

After a huge amount of enquiries we have made a fourth (and probably final) edition with metallic overlay in many shades. This is designed by hand, so that it's subtle enough to suit the theme but still adds a touch of glamour. You can read about the changes we made in this new edition on our blog HERE.

• The new version of the standard deck includes two Emperor cards, two Devil cards and two Lovers cards (the limited edition deck also includes a third Lovers card).
• Voted "Deck of the Year" 2006 at Aeclectic Tarot Forum, the deck is an authentic re-working of 19th century art. Many readers find the cards particularly good for looking at a range of relationship issues, as the pictures are narrative and really do "tell a story", making them ideal for intuitive readings.

• Please note that when the decks arrived, we found there was a very small misalignment in the cut on some of the backs of these cards. It is well within what is considered normal, and in fact, you will see this on many decks (it;'s the reason there is a bit of "bleed" usually designed into the backs of cards). However, for full transparency we are mentioning this. Please see back photos.
  

• New edition with several changes to the imagery of the fourth edition. Mainly, we have made the deck more inclusive. You can read about this decision HERE. The cold-stamping is more prominent than it was in the previous edition and the back is a new design.
• Fully illustrated with 78 cards (plus title card and three extra) that follow the popular Rider Waite Smith tarot structure, so they are easy to read "out of the box". 
• They are 128 * 78 mm (about 5 * 3 inches).
• Printed on 330 gram European playing-card stock with an inner core to protect against bending and folding.
• Gorgeous, carefully designed metallic overlays (these are actually printed on the card UNDER the other inks and varnish) - this gives the impression of metallics in various colours so is spectacular.
• Printed in Europe and cut by a traditional method.
