Japanese RWS

Post by Archer3005 »

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to track down a deck I saw at the weekend. It's a Rider Waite Smith, very glossy, with an intense black background. I believe this particular version is of Japanese origin. The owner had no idea what the deck was called.

Sounds cool. I'd be interested in this one. I did a little search and no luck.

Somebody here must know it.

Was it holographic?

There's this https://m.aliexpress.com/item/32849767730.html

And eBay https://www.ebay.com/p/Waite-Rider-Taro ... 3867529263

I've seen them online around wish, eBay, Ali express, Walmart, Amazon too I think. I don't know if they're all made by the same printer so I can't verify the quality of that link, but it seems that folks are happy with them for the price.

I think those are kanji right? I couldn't tell if it was Chinese or Japanese, but the ads I kept seeing said Chinese. Maybe this isn't the right deck....?
On my phone mainly so pardon the typos! Also if I seem more lucid than average, I'm probably typing on a PC. Hah!

Archer3005, the deck you are refering to, name as Cherishone Tarot deck, it's a mandarin version RWS with black background and glossy finishing.

Ah I see. I thought it was Chinese. I'm glad to know it's name now 😊 Thanks
