gregory Posted February 23 Posted February 23 Just a question. I bought a black and white deck recently - just a little Chinese cheapie which looked cute and probably AI - and a review I later found said it was a knock-off copy of a coloured one called the Leisurely Cat Tarot. I found that on etsy - sold out - but I suspect that was also a knock-off as the etsy seller refers to a QR code on the box that doesn't work. I've looked all over and all I can find is that the artist MAY be called Irtush. Does ANYONE know who created it - or anything else about it ? Image of the coloured one clipped from etsy:

gregory Posted February 23 Author Posted February 23 (edited) Yes - but I imagine that's a knock-off ? aliexpress usually is, isn;t it ? I can't find anything about the artist ? I suppose it COLD just be a cheap Chinese deck... Edited February 23 by gregory
gregory Posted February 23 Author Posted February 23 OH but wait - you inspired me. Maybe the coloured one IS legit: Vermilion usually are, I think ? https://en.pinkoi.com/product/sUaZWZnd

Their decks are sold across multiple platforms, including Pinkoi, Vermilion Collection, TEVADA Tarot, and their own crowdfunding campaigns. They are a legitimate, creative indie tarot studio — quite different from the generic factory-brand impression that the AliExpress listings gave earlier.
gregory Posted February 24 Author Posted February 24 (edited) I don't know that I want the whole collection, though. I cannot find it for sale in its own. And the listing is deactivated anyway. Edited February 24 by gregory

FindYourSovereignty Posted February 25 Posted February 25 Good to know. Too bad it isn't still available.
