PORTRAIT DE PARIS POKER

Published between 1735 and 1751, Portrait de Paris Poker Deck by J. Trioullier is a true piece of history that fits perfectly among the artistic products in our store. Our partners at Artisan Tarot have undertaken yet another meticulous restoration, staying true to their nearly philological approach.

The original illustrations of this deck are preserved at the National Library of France, but this edition is special in its own right. Only 1,000 copies were printed in the first run, each individually numbered. A refined collector’s item created by Krisztin Kondor.

Artisan Tarot was founded in 2019 by William Rader, an entrepreneur and reader, and Krisztin Kondor, graduated in Product and Graphic Design at the University of Sopron. Their mission is to promote classic tarot among modern readers by restoring and recreating historical decks in an elegant and inspiring way. Artisan Tarot is a young brand with unique products: the Nicolas Conver Tarot and the Jean Noblet Tarot were released in 2021, while the Jean Dodal Tarot and the Jacques Vieville Tarot were released in 2022.
