The Canon's read

Tarot Canon's own assessment, written for this catalog.

The Flonz Victorian Lenormand keeps the traditional thirty-six card system in period dress: Victorian styling and historical aesthetics wrapped around the fixed symbol set, dog, tower, ring, coffin, that Lenormand readers work in combination. Flonz specializes in vintage-styled card reproductions, and the house's antiquarian finish suits Lenormand better than most systems, since the method's actual heyday was precisely the era the styling evokes. A traditional count with period art is the conservative corner of the Lenormand revival, the counterpart to expansions like the Gravenchase elsewhere in this catalog: nothing added, nothing modernized, the parlor system as the parlor knew it. That makes it a clean learning deck, no extra cards to confuse the grammar, and a natural companion to the French Cartomancy deck's salon history. It suits Lenormand beginners who want the tradition unedited, Victoriana collectors, and readers for whom period correctness is the atmosphere. Those wanting a contemporary edge have the revival's other wing.
