Pros & Cons
Pros
The images are stunning. The imagery and artwork are pretty cool. The box is a lovely deep royal purple.
The first print was too glossy, these cards have a more matte finish to them so the colors are more enjoyable. The cardstock is quite nice and the cards are easy to shuffle. Hope they will make another edition with gold foil upgrade.
Cilla conway is the artist behind the intuitive tarot. Her renderings for the byzantine tarot are nothing short of breathtaking. The deck and guidebook are the perfect complement to each other.
This deck is amazing. It's one of those decks that are just begging to be trimmed. Loved the deck, packaged well and was promptly delivered by amazon. Do yourselves a favor & buy this deck.

Packaging/appearance

Some have commented on the size of the cards
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
But even though the deck was thick the cards themselves seemed to be printed on material that was just slightly thicker than cardstock

It is quite disappointing to see the lack of gold foil
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The card stock is ok it is not very flimsy but the surface might be a bit sticky and it might not be a quick or smooth shuffling of the cards
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The rounding of the corners of the card is not very uniform and smooth as if it is done at home
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The box is secure however it gives the illusion that the cards are gold foiled
