Bought one deck for myself and gave two of them away to more experienced tarot readers. Beautiful gold leaf details. Card meaning are similar to traditional decks like the Rider-Waite, but you have to be familiar with that deck to recognize it. A pleasure for the eye.

Gorgeous deck, unusual LWB interpretations
27 Mar 2009
By Wildervine
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Cards
The cards in this sumptuous deck are gorgeous, some of them with a hauntingly beautiful dreamlike element. It is most certainly a must have deck for anyone who collects decks or for someone who just wants a splendid deck to read with. A couple of things to keep in mind though, if you are considering this deck: the Botticelli LWB (little white book) may be particularly problematic for a novice reader. Interpretations for several of the cards are very non-traditional. A novice who is trying to learn the Tarot but still wants this deck might want to skip the LWB for now, learn the basic meanings first, and then see how to make these cards work for you. For others with a good grounding in basic Tarot interpretation, working with these cards intuitively can be a joy, as most of the images will certainly prompt many insights. The 2nd issue is that while virtually all of these cards are magnificent to look at, there are a few cards that are almost void of all traditional symbolism. This was most noticable in some of the pip (minor arcana) cards. Still, these 'problems' (if you can even call them that) are not insurmountable and for sheer visual pleasure it would be hard to beat this deck. Highly recommended.

Beautiful!

Love this deck! It's my first Lo Scarabeo deck and I'm impressed. The quality of the card stock is nice and I would like to note that the Amazon picture shows the outside border of the cards in a cream color...they are actually done in black-much better in my opinion! The black gives the art a real rich quality and the gold pops out. Not only does this deck look nice it reads very accurately too! If you are a fan of Botticelli this deck is a must!

A beautiful set of cards

If you are a Tarot collector, you'll want to have the Botticelli Tarot. Particularly if you are inclined to appreciate the artistic element of tarot cards. These cards are beautiful.
Esthetically, the only criticism that I have to make is that there is some unevenness in the presentation because some swords have gilded lines that make them pop up while others do not. The same happens with the suit of cups, but it is more noticeable with the swords. Other than that, this set of tarot cards is gorgeous.
