The Jacob Jerger Tarot is a beautifully restored edition of a deck originally produced by German cardmaker Jacob Jerger in Besancon, France between 1820 and 1845. It follows the Tarot de Besancon tradition, which is closely related to the Tarot de Marseille but notably replaces the Popess and the Pope with the Roman deities Juno and Jupiter. Artisan Tarot produced this carefully considered restoration with a linen finish on quality 310 GSM card stock, making it excellent for regular use. This first edition is limited to 1,000 individually numbered decks, and includes an information card and promotional card.
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.
