This 38-card Lenormand deck modestly captures the essence of traditional Chinese ink painting. The coloring method takes after that of raden (or luodian) art, in which multi-colored inlays made from shells or mother-of-pearl are used to embellish lacquerware. This decorative technique finding roots in traditional Japanese and Chinese art adds a touch of cultural richness to the design. Its delicate delineation and calmingly graceful color palette showcase the reserved sophistication of oriental ink culture.
