Art Nouveau Tarot Deck by Matt Myers (1989) – Vintage U.S. Games | Practitioner’s Legacy | Complete with Booklet | Metta-Blessed™
Practitioner’s Legacy Tarot Deck
This is an authentic Art Nouveau Tarot Deck by Matt Myers, originally published in 1989 by U.S. Games Systems and printed in Belgium.
Now out of print, this deck is widely admired for its jewel-toned, stained-glass–inspired artwork and harmonious Art Nouveau design language.
This copy comes from a practitioner’s legacy collection — carefully kept, respectfully used, and preserved with intention.
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The artwork draws heavily from late 19th–early 20th century Art Nouveau, with flowing botanical borders, symmetrical framing, and luminous colour fields reminiscent of cathedral stained glass. Each card appears like a decorative window — rich in symbolism, rhythm, and visual balance.
Figures are stylised rather than photographic, allowing the imagery to remain timeless and archetypal. The colour palette is especially striking: deep cobalt blues, amber golds, emerald greens, and ruby reds dominate the deck, creating strong visual clarity even in low light.
Symbolism follows traditional tarot structure, making this deck both intuitive to read and deeply satisfying to study over time.
CARD SIZE & FINISH (PLEASE NOTE)
• The cards are slightly smaller than traditional Rider–Waite–Smith decks, making them:
• Easier to shuffle
• Comfortable for smaller hands
• Ideal for extended reading sessions
• The card stock features a high-quality glossy finish, offering:
• Smooth, fluid handling
• Enhanced colour saturation
• Excellent durability for practical use
Despite the slightly reduced size, artwork detail is not compromised — lines remain crisp and colours vibrant.
