The imagery of The Bohemian Cats Theatre Tarot draws you into a world of dramatic tales (and tails!), where each reading can become a richly nuanced, story-driven experience. The deck is closely based on the Rider Waite Smith pattern and will be easy to read for those who work with RWS.
Every card is, printed in Europe under our careful supervision, a miniature performance, inviting intuitive insight through expressive detail and theatrical charm. Beautifully printed in Europe, with BabaBarock's unique "in the image" cold stamping to give a dynamic and almost 3D effect, The Bohemian Cats Theatre Tarot rejoices in the elegance of feline form, lavish costuming, the magic of the stage, and the timeless wisdom of tarot.
The 78 cards plus a title card is printed on 330 gram German-made playing-card stock with an inner core to protect against bending and folding. Vanished with semi-matte varnish so that the varnish is not too shiny.
This deck will come in a wooden hinged box with a gold title and graphics. These boxes are made specially for us in Czech Republic. Please note that because in Europe there are now no supplies of birch from Russia, the alternative birch wood used in this box may show some grain and knots - we actually rather like that as it shows it came from a tree!
