I purchased this deck because I really liked the pictures and artwork. Card designs are beautiful, very rich in colors, with black border. For the most part, the art design is influenced by the Rider-Waite style. Cards size fits comfortably in hands, as slightly smaller than average tarot deck, and slightly larger than regular playing card deck. Decent card stock and seems durable enough, without too much stiffness, which makes shuffling easier. Very pleased with deck. My only disappointment is I thought this deck came with its own book, as it indicated “a set”. Not so. There was no smaller pamphlet included in with the deck neither, as usually is the case when no book accompanies a deck. So I would say this deck is not suitable for a beginner as it comes with no guidance or instructions. However, there are plenty of books on the market for tarot beginners that can be used along side this deck.
