Can anyone identify this deck for me?

I had to get the windshield in my car replaced, after some charming person decided to give it a good whack in my absence. I was right next to a strip mall I had never visited, and after having a great time in the clothing consignment store, I hit a second-hand store. And found these cards for $15 Cdn. In a lovely plastic carrying case.

The lwb is in what looks likes cyrillic to me (??) though the front box says:

Taro in large letters with Magical cards for cartomancy and patience written in English.

The cards have Cyrillic (?) and English titles, no keywords. It looks like gold ink highlights and the cards have a lot of texture on the backs.

oops, I should have checked there first. Found it.

Wauu... the majors are really gorgeous!!!
Unfortunately I don't like the minors much...

The word BOCTOK (pronounce [vastok]) that appears on one of the cards (last on right, last pic) means EAST and it is indeed cyrillic.

Great you found out by yourself what the deck is, btw!

A find indeed. Those cards are gorgeous!
Now to try to figure out why none of the second hand stores around here ever have any tarotdecks..

No, same here. They are quite uninspiring.

Thanks Kissa!

They are lovely. I might be in the minority but I like the pips. Nice colours.

It looks like a powerful deck to work with. I havn't seen it before. Is it still in print?

Excellent find. Would be interested to hear how it reads.

Jeannette tells me it is not OOP, just not readily available on this side of the Atlantic.

Thanks Marion.
