Crystal Time: Playing cards by Violeta Monreal (Fournier)

Bernice

I've wanted the deck El Mundo by this artist for ages, but cannot find a copy :(

However I have found this deck, Crystal Time, and I'm pleased I did :). It comes as double deck very reasonably priced, and is Fournier quality cardstock. See some scans below.

Is anyone else familiar with this deck - or using it?

It seems Violetas' decks are hard to find - aside from some childrens ones. I very much wanted the "El Mundo" cards, they are fully illustrated with medieval scenes, named 'Medieval Life' in the link by felicityk. (Thankyou for finding the scans felicityk!)

You're welcome! The El Mundo/Medieval Life deck is gorgeous, but I find it a little too "busy" with some of the scenes. I would love to have that deck or Crystal Time. Allegories and Myths is nice too.
