Oh my goodness I love the new deck so much! I have the Easy Tarot version which I do love also, but I really want the newest version. Thank you for sharing darling.
Thanks for your great observations! I have a mini of this deck and never saw half the details you mentioned! Your colors seem brighter, also. You got me excited about this one!
It’s not dirty. They actually were originally gilded when first made and a much better card stock. So the first kit you got was actually gilded in gold. Which they stopped because people complained about the golf edges chipping off. Then, Llewellyn I believe bought it out mass market, and it became a collaboration with the East Tarot. So yes definitely a difference, and the edges although worn in- are actually gold. Not dirty. KEEP THAT FIRST DECK!!!! They’re impossible to find today. And Mr. Marchetti I believe is done making decks. He was extremely upset by the amount of fake decks being produced. And he refuses to make anymore decks. So KEEP THOSE!!!! They’ll be worth A LOT one of these days!!!
I’m late to have come across this review, and thank you very much for the comprehensive summary. What I found amusing in a nice way was the fun and in some cases the difficulty you had in finding my initials. There is an irony in that, namely that I have been plagued over the years by another reviewer who has taken a dislike to my work and delights in critiquing my inclusion those initials. She claims they are such an obvious and distracting ego trip on my part, and to emphasis her opinion she posts images and highlights their location. I have to wonder that if they are as distracting and obvious as she claims, why they needed to be highlighted. But anyway, they were as you noted, primarily a means of authenticity and little fun, nothing more…
I'm a little bit star stuck right now!!! And very embarrassed!! This video is so old and not very professionally done! But thank you for stopping by, thank YOU for watching and for commenting. I'm so humbled. Your work has always (and continues) to inspire me. I have all your mass market decks and am longing to get the others but unfortunately shipping to me makes it rather challenging. Your work has been truly life changing for me! I appreciate you! I love that you put your initials in the images! They are YOU, they should reflect that. Thank you for making my day kind sir, I wish you love and many blessings.
I think I have a spell Bead that looks exactly like the one on your bracelet! I had mine bonded to me from WhiteFoxCoven…I have that color and like a green I got from Etsy. I am looking at which of these versions of the deck I want to get…the Easy Tarot or another…glad to see this comparison video! So beautiful…I’ll be happy with any I’m sure! I am actually trying to decide which of Ciro’s decks I want the most. I just look at the pictures all the time lol…haven’t bought one yet!
You wont be sorry with any of Ciro's decks. They are all truly wonderful and read SO well. I love every single one of his decks and I am proud to say i have a few of them
I love your enthusiasm! I get the same way!!! I purchased the Marchetti Tarot from his website, which has purple gilding. And I absolutely was over the moon about that deck!!!!
there are counterfeit decks in China that cost a few euros. there are also versions printed under license by different companies so you can find different paper and colors
Lovely video, the cards look beautiful. I have the easy Tarot and will be buying this gilded version asap! You covered everything I was curious about so thank you so much. I am new to this but Ciro’s decks speak to me so much. Subscribed.🙏
Hi. I did not realize there were other editions of the Gilded Tarot. It's so confusing! 😅 My Gill Tarot is so pretty grubby but I still use it. I'm kicking myself for not getting The Gilded Tarot and there's some Made in China and I'm not sure if I should get it. What to do?
Honestly I feel that the Gilded Tarot is a staple in any collection. There is just something about it. It's also not an expensive purchase so maybe get it when you can... It really is gorgeous!
I bought this when it was in the cheaply-made box from Llewelyn- not the second one you have here but one released close to the same time. The card stock is thick and not great. I don’t use it much just because of that. The deck you have that came in the Easy Tarot I think is better quality- I have a friend with that deck and it’s entirety different. I think I bought the worst- quality one! 😢
Great review. I have just ordered this and "CM" on the HP card is on the right hand pillar , the pillar of B and CM is carved into the stone on the 3rd block down xx
When did they stop gilding the Gilded Tarot? Your cards show that it originally came gilded. Is yours an indie edition? Sorry to say that my deck is not gilded. I bought the kit (deck, Barbara Moore book, sheer black bag and 2 spread cards) in 2006 or just after from a book store. The box says Llewellyn 2004 and the book says 1st edition, 5th printing, 2006. My outter box lifts up on the right side and inside there is a box that you can decorate with an attached card that tells you how to care for the deck. My deck looks brand new since I barely used it. Soon I will edge it with black ink, but I won't be trimming it. Also, I plan on getting the Gilded Tarot Royale as well. Borderless, updated and very pretty! ~~Kitty
Hi, my original was not gilded. I think what you're seeing is the worn and dirty edges. That deck is so well used! 🤣🤭😉 it really is a gorgeous deck! And yes, my first deck came in the same box kit, with the black bag etc.
@@IntuitiveRene Hi Rene. Thanks for the reply. I look forward to edging my deck. I haven't done that before. The new revised borderless Royale has thin card stock, so might not get that one.
Thanks Rene. Really enjoyed that. I'm slowly warming up to Ciros artwork. If you had to describe the card stock, what other deck would you say its the same as?? The new deck is really stunning though. I recently saw Sandra's (the whispering well) review a Ciros Encore deck. Heres the link ua-cam.com/video/NRoJlbvRZ3g/v-deo.html maybe if you want it we can go halves on the shipping? 🙂
Hey Conrad, thanks for watching.. The Gilded Royale is standard Llewellyn cardstock which I honestly dont mind. Its not overly thick but also not too flimsy. For my small arthritic hands it shuffles well... And if you want the Encore deck - yes please!!! I have been oooogling it for some time now and would love to get a copy! Happy to go half on shipping
Oh my goodness I love the new deck so much! I have the Easy Tarot version which I do love also, but I really want the newest version. Thank you for sharing darling.
It really is an awesome deck. Thanks for popping over to watch 💜🥰

Yes, he def said in a video that he won't make anymore 😢
its on the pillar in the background on the right the high priestess
card
CM on the right pillar two stones up from the heel!
Great, thank you for that spot
He depicts THE BEST Devils, ever! Perfect seduction. Thank you for the comparison - The Royale is truly stunning.
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching
CM is halfway up the right pole
Stunning deck! Thank you for the review and for the explanations. Much appreciated! 🙏🏻🙂
My pleasure! 😁

The CM in the High in the High Priestess card is on the Right Hand column midway up the column.
Thank you 💜
Absolutely loved the walkthrough! Amazingly I could se the difference between the cards, love love love the Royale! Going on my wish list 💞💞💞
Glad you enjoyed! I'm really loving this deck... I haven't put it down and everytime I reach for a deck it seems to be this one...

Red ribbon say c in the bottom and green say m
Thank you
I actually just bought this deck and it’s my first one. I chose it by instinct
Its a brilliant first deck and I'm sure you'll be very happy with it
I love your enthusiasm! I get the same way!!! I purchased the Marchetti Tarot from his website, which has purple gilding. And I absolutely was over the moon about that deck!!!!

I have all 3 as well. I actually edged my easy tarot deck in black. And I won’t be doing that with the new Gilded Royale. Since it’s borderless.
I thought the moon in the borderless was a full moon instead..? Anyway, I need one of the decks sooner or later! 🤩
This one is on my list. So beautiful 😍 thank you for sharing 💚💜🤍💜💚
Lovely video, the cards look beautiful. I have the easy Tarot and will be buying this gilded version asap! You covered everything I was curious about so thank you so much. I am new to this but Ciro’s decks speak to me so much. Subscribed.🙏
The CM is on the pillar on the right, 3rd brick down. High Priestess
Fool CM Is writing with the ribbons
Wish you had the cards in order I really wanted to see the difference
On Moon card it is still Moon not Earth, just in full shape 🌕

24:10 the Moon card is the full Moon, not the Earth.
Great review! I have a few of Ciro’s decks and this is next on my list! Btw, that is the Moon in the Royale Moon card not the Earth. Thank you!
Beautiful
Great review. I have just ordered this and "CM" on the HP card is on the right hand pillar , the pillar of B and CM is carved into the stone on the 3rd block down xx
Wha does the J B on the high priestess card? They are on the columns.
It sometime means the letter J and b will be important to you I think
They are the pillars of Boaz and Jachin. The symbolism is important for the meaning of the card.
When did they stop gilding the Gilded Tarot? Your cards show that it originally came gilded. Is yours an indie edition? Sorry to say that my deck is not gilded.

Great
