A very deluxe Lenormand deck published by Lo Scarabeo, featuring larger-sized cards, imprinted with shiny gold dots.
This deck caught my attention some time ago. The Lenormand cards' market is wide, but not as wide as Tarot. There simply aren't that many luxurious, large, gold, gift-ready Lenormand decks. This one comes in a nice sturdy box, has a nice little book coming with short descriptions of the cards and their combinations, and the stock of the cards is nice, thick, and well laminated.
Everything about this deck is high quality, higher-end end and clearly meant as an upscale Lenormand deck.
The cards themselves are fairly large and quite glossy. They slide well during shuffling, but may be a bit more difficult to shuffle for people with smaller hands. The majority of the cards have a large part of the card imprinted with gold dots to create a really shiny and opulent look.
The cards do not have the name of the card on them — only a number and a playing card equivalent. It keeps the cards cleaner looking, but may be more difficult for a beginner, who is not fully familiarized with the card names and their meanings.
However, the main selling point also becomes the main disadvantage of these cards, and that is: their size. They are simply too big, especially for the Grand Tableau, which makes it a bit difficult to turn them into a "workhorse" Lenormand deck.
Their size predestined them for smaller spreads or even one-card readings. Here, their size works great, as it gives simple readings an aura of feeling a bit more special.
The feel of the whole package is very high-end, and they would make a great gift for a Lenormand lover who is looking for a more upscale-looking deck and doesn't mind the bigger size.
Overall, I would say this deck is not for everyone, and it's not made to cover every need of a Lenormand Reader, but it does have its place, and it can fill in gaps that a more everyday deck would have a hard time doing.
