Insetti in 22 Arcani Tarocchi
22 Major Arcana Insect Themed Tarot Deck Set
A Very Limited Edition, Hand-Crafted Deck & Box Set
Signed, Numbered by Osvaldo Menegazzi


This is a beautifully crafted deck and box set with exquisite attention to detail. Each card has a painting of an insect which corresponds and shares characteristics of the meanings of that Major Arcana. The handmade box has Tarot art from the deck fastened to the top as well as Osvaldo's signature hot-wax seal. Details about the set are handwritten on an additional card adhered to the side of the box. Each set has a hand written, numbered signature card done in lovely calligraphy on specialty paper. The cards themselves are wonderfully illustrated and the artwork is mounted on thick cardstock with a dark brown paper wrapping around to the front of the cards and folded down at each corner, giving it a classy, antique-style. A very limited edition, hand-crafted collectable that is a rare and wondrous treasure!

Additionally a third; more reasonably priced set became available a bit later. This version has a large sized deck (thin art stock) in a decorated gift box. (See more cards and details here.)
