The Bordoni - Milanese Tarot handmade by Marco Benedetti 🇮🇹 Musings by Mascha 2025-07-18 | Hello tarot friends,The weekend is here and so is my weekend video featuring the newest treasure of an addition to my tarot library in the most delightful handmade Tarocco Milanese Fabbrica di Bordoni 1885 by Marco Benedetti.Now, could the Bordoni be the PRETTIEST historic tarot we now have access to?? Please share your thoughts in the comments below.Marco Benedetti’s Details are below (and contacting him is the only way to reserve your copy – please do not look on eBay as the copies of Marco’s decks we have seen sold there are much pricier than Marco charges for his handcrafted decks.
