The Stretch Lenormand

This deck beautifully illustrates the Lenormand with vintage photography and illustrations set on the corresponding pages of a dictionary.

Lenormand cards share their name with Marie Anne Adelaide Lenormand, a notable 18th century card reader and writer. A typical Lenormand deck has 36 cards read in large spreads. In a Grand Tableau, the entire deck is laid out at once and interpreted based on the position of a signifier card.

"So much detail in this deck. Beautiful imagery, you get drawn into the stories and lives that the people in the photographs lived."

The imagery of this deck was curated from the public domain, sourced mainly from the Wellcome Collection and Wiki Commons.

I have included two additional 'Man' and 'Woman' signifer cards with reversed numbering to allow for same-sex readings, and I also created two original signifer cards ('The Mirrors') free from gender and race for a more universal reading experience.

The black and gold foiled tuck box is inspired by 19th century mourning card designs.
