Le Petit Cartomancien | Vintage Oracle Deck
Immerse yourself in the timeless allure of "Le Petit Cartomancien", a vintage oracle deck with origins steeped in the mystique of 19th-century Paris. First published in 1875, this deck is a Lenormand facsimile, capturing the very essence of an era when psychic readings were the pivot of high-society parlours.
Each card is crafted to symbolize key figures in social tapestries, such as the 'marchand' (merchant/businessman), 'une veuve' (widow), and 'une brune' (a brunette), reflecting the intricate and often politically charged webs of Parisian salon society.
The deck comes complete with a durable two-piece box for safekeeping, and an insightful guide that provides translations for each card's title and meaning. It also includes instructions adapted from a historical guidebook on the Lenormand reading methods.
Printed on luxurious 350 gsm thick coated card stock, the substantial cards measure 12 cm by 7 cm, ensuring a robust feel and easy handling during your divinatory practices.
