If you are not familiar with what I have done with this deck - this is NOT - I repeat, NOT the original version of the Sola Busca Deck or anything close to it. I have reworked every card in the deck - the previous version is now out of print.
The original Sola Busca deck was made in the 1400's by an unknown artist, and although beautiful in illustration, it simply does not have the same sort of imagery or cards that readers of the Rider Waite system typically recognize in tarot reading today.
I went through and edited the cards, making use of the beautiful artistry of the original deck, remaking the imagery to better conform with the Rider Waite system of reading cards.
It will not please the historians, but then the historians don't necessarily read cards either. I read cards & don't want a deck that's not going to be used. A lot.
The deck does not have any titles or keywords, however the cards are numbered.
The deck comes standard with a new card back that features the four suits around the edges. If you would like a different card back, you may choose from the CUSTOM CARD BACKS as well. Click HERE to go to the CUSTOM CARD BACKS page to view hundreds of additional card back options.

I'll post a video of this deck and the matching pouch and reading cloth soon.
It generally takes 2 weeks to get to most places, however, a few countries are notoriously slow, such as Canada & Australia, and especially Brazil. I do offer free worldwide shipping, however some countries require that I ship registered mail, and in most countries that's the safer option anyway, & there is a fee for that service. You can request a tracking number if you like after a few days.
JOURNALING STICKERS are available - right now the only ones I have are the ones with the borders, so if you want non-bordered, you'd have to crop them.

I love the new deck with the updated images along with the whole ensemble! My compliments also to your choice of a printer to produce the cards so well.
I agree that the new deck is for readers and not for historians. However, you have created a new point in time for Sola Busca. Much as Pamela Colman Smith was, according to AE Waite, likely inspired by the Sola Busca images, your new deck is clearly inspired by both Sosla Busca and Pamela Colman Smith’s handiwork.
I have several Sola Busca decks now and your updated deck is the only practical deck of them all in terms of accessibility and readings.

Don’t tell my Red Deck, but I’m madly in love with these cards…

This is Amanda in Tennessee. I just wanted to let you know you've gone and done it this time! The Sola Busca re-visited deck I just received from you are fantastic. I mean a big WOW! I love them. The colors are bright and the back. I ordered is just great! Thank you very much for your great work.

Card Stock
310 gsm casino quality card stock with Premium linen finish.
The linen card stock has an eggshell finish (not glossy) and a very slight texture (you can see if you hold up to the light). This texture allows for the slightest bit of air to pass between the cards, allowing for a smoother shuffle. The 310 gsm card stock is a paper card stock, and it is less prone to get "the bends" (the bane of tarot collectors - where there becomes a slight warp for seemingly no reason).
IF you prefer a different card stock than the linen or waterproof card stocks, please write to me in advance of placing your order.
