About this deck

The Tarot de Marseille Convos is a faithful reproduction of the famous Marseille deck originally printed in 1760 by cardmaker Nicolas Conver.

It combines centuries-old tradition with modern craftsmanship in a deck deeply rooted in the origins of tarot.

Background and imagery

The illustrations are simple but powerful, with a strong graphic character that is characteristic of the Marseille system. The original woodcut-like style has been retained, with rich and expressive colors carefully recreated from Conver's original work. The Arcanes Maîtres and Arcanes Mineurs are rich in traditional symbolism, without unnecessary ornamentation – a style that invites pure, reading with feelings.

how the deck comes to life in readings

This deck is appreciated for its clarity and directness. It is ideal for readers who work with the Marseille system or want to delve into the roots of tarot. Due to the lack of scenes on the Minor Arcana, you are challenged to read from feelings, number theory and symbolism. Many tarotists use this deck for serious reflection, deep work and meditative readings.

Is this deck welcoming to those just starting out?

Although the deck looks simple, it is especially suitable for people who are willing to delve into the Marseille system. For beginners who want to learn intuitively without much visual guidance on the Minor Arcana, it can feel a bit abstract. But for those who would like to get to know the basics of tarot in its purest form, this is a particularly educational and valuable deck.
