What It Is

A restored edition of the original 1909 Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck, presented in a circular card format. The artwork preserves Pamela Colman Smith’s original pen, ink, and watercolor illustrations, with carefully restored color and detail.

Why It Belongs

This deck belongs in the Maison as a study in continuity and transformation. The circular format shifts how the cards are handled and interpreted, encouraging movement, flow, and non-linear reading while remaining grounded in one of tarot’s most foundational systems.

About the Deck

Originally guided by Arthur Edward Waite and illustrated by Pamela Colman Smith, the Tarot Original 1909 is one of the most influential tarot decks in modern practice. This circular edition maintains the symbolic structure and imagery readers trust, while offering a physical form that invites fresh perspective and intuitive exploration.
