Jean Dodal's 1701 Tarot de Marseille, produced in Lyon, is one of the most historically significant decks in the tarot tradition. Surviving copies are held in the National Library of France and the British Museum, and Artisan Tarot consulted both when preparing this restoration. The artwork was meticulously redrawn and recolored to reflect the original sources while achieving the consistency and clarity that readers expect today. Printed in the US on 310 GSM linen-finish card stock, the deck has crisp lines, a satisfying weight, and a small size that makes it a delight to shuffle.
William Rader and Krisztin Kondor founded Artisan Tarot in 2019 with a clear mission: to bring historically significant tarot decks to modern readers through thoughtful, high-quality restorations. Krisztin holds a Master degree in Product and Graphic Design from the University of Sopron and specializes in linocut printmaking, a technique similar to how early tarot cards were made, giving her a distinctive perspective when working with historic imagery. William has spent over a decade as a reader and educator, regularly leading group readings and teaching tarot through Artisan Tarot courses.
