Piatnik's c. 1890 Lenormand

An earlier deck published by Piatnik around 1890, judging from the clothing worn by the Lady and Gentleman, is another great antique deck. In the Philippe Lenormand sheet, the original directions for reading a GT with the Lenormand, states about trees, "A Tree, if distant from the Person, signifies good health; more trees of different cards together leave no doubt about the realization of all reasonable wishes." And unlike many new decks, as well as some of the older decks, this beautiful old Piatnik deck has several cards with trees in the images.

This deck contains the Philippe instructions on additional cards, from my original PL sheet.

Like the Lenormand decks I have worked on, this one has 2 Lady and 2 Gentleman cards.

The cards are made for people who plan to use their cards often. They are printed on modern day, casino grade card stock (black core, 320 gsm) that can be riffle shuffled and feels wonderful in hand and come in a tuck box. Card size is 2-1/2 x 3-1/2"

The decks will be specially ordered just for you and mailed in 3-4 weeks, although probably sooner.

NOTES -- PLEASE READ:

First, I accept NO CANCELLATIONS or refunds because each deck is specially ordered for you; once the order is sent to the printer, I cannot cancel it and so it will be delivered to you. If more than one deck is ordered, there is reduced shipping for the additional decks.

This is a facsimile reproduction or a restored reproduction of actual cards or period art (the Papus and 1926 Wirth decks). There is no accompanying instruction booklet but may or may not contain instructions or information on additional cards. The card stock is made to be shuffled and used and, as such, may be a disappointment to "collectors" but will delight aficionados who use and appreciate the art of antique decks. Since each deck is made to order, please be patient. Your deck will be ordered immediately but may take up to 3 to 4 weeks to arrive, internationally 3-7 weeks.
