What is the box like?
One piece, rigid with a matte finish. Lid flips open like a book.
Does the deck come with a guidebook?
Yes, the 137 page guidebook will be in the box with the cards.

Authenticity

I saw the Spacious Tarot listed on Amazon, Etsy, Ebay etc, is this legit?
NO! Unfortunately, plagiarism is a big issue for tarot deck creators, especially indie deck creators like us. Any version of the deck you see on the sites listed above is a lower quality, plagiarized item. Whenever you buy tarot decks, supporting deck creators directly is best.
How can I recognize a plagiarized tarot deck?
Fake versions of the Spacious Tarot will typically be listed at a much lower price point, reflecting their lower quality. They come in a tuck box as opposed to the sturdy clamshell box of the authentic deck. Another red flag: plagiarized decks usually don’t include a guidebook, any item asking you to scan a QR code to access a guidebook is plagiarized.
Why does the official Spacious Tarot deck have a different price point than plagiarized versions?
We took care to select a printer with a reputation for high quality products and fair business practices to produce our authentic decks. As with most items, official tarot decks are higher quality than dupes. Indie decks also costs more than mass market (aka traditionally published) tarot decks as we don’t have the backing of a large printing house. The average range for indie tarot decks is around $40-70 USD. Thank you for supporting small creators!

Other Questions

Is this deck suitable for beginners?

          Yes, although the guidebook is definitely there to help you.  Use the cards as            portals into your consciousness and allow the imagery speak to you.  Sometimes this isn't so easy, and the guidebook is written to help you ask questions that serve you.

Can you explain your tarot suites?

           Yes!  We stripped the suites of their gender and used a different hierarchy to show the growth of an individual.  The traditional "page" is now the child.  "knight" = explorer.  "Queen" = guardian.  "Kind" = elder.

How did you develop the cards?

           Carrie and Annie met online for almost 3 years, and Carrie shared ideas and sketches.  Annie took those ideas and made 1, 2, sometimes 4 sketches until we both loved an idea.  She created the cards by hand, using photoshop brushes.
