Of the decks I own, it´s "Mystic Faerie Tarot" and "Shadowscapes Tarot".
Which deck do you think is the most beautiful?

I LOVE the Ceccoli tarot deck. It is so pretty. The pictures are so whimsical and Alice in wonderland like. I'm not very good at reading it tho. It's so different from my deck that I always use.

Luckily, there are a lot of magnificent decks out there.
For me, though, there is NOTHING like the Visconti-Sforza. It's just a thing of the purest beauty.

Il Meneghello's recent printing of the Modrone (Cary-Yale) deck is hands down the most beautiful tarot deck I have ever seen.
I am not ashamed to admit I teared up a little when I opened that box and looked at the cards for the first time.
None of the other Visconti-Sforza repros come close to the beauty of this one. The color is breathtaking.

And now I officially HATE you.
The Cary-Yale version was actually what I had in mind, but I let go the USG facsimile edition like an idiot, and now I sorely miss it. Your post took me straight to the Il Meneghello store. It is just so beautiful. And those female pages, or damsels, or whatever they could be called... Ah.

Would like to but can't answer this question. Beauty of a deck to me implies not only the "looks" but also the messages it delivers, the tone with which it does so, the "woosh" you get when it just feels right and tingly. If it were ONLY for beauty sake, I would say that the most beautiful deck I've seen is the Tarot of Delphi. And the Pen's Tarot as a worthy contender.

Those scans on the Il Meneghello page look horrible. They don't even come close to how vivid the colors are on the actual deck.
These are much closer:

I took delivery today of the Royo Labyrinth and I have to say it is one of the most breathtaking decks I've ever seen!
