Lenormand and short esoteric decks
Lenormand Deck Printing: Cost for a 36-Card Deck
A 36-card Lenormand deck — the classic Petit Lenormand count — at our standard 2.76 × 4.72 in (70 × 120 mm) card size, with a printed box (a PDF guide is available on request), prints at $11.39 a deck from our twelve-deck minimum: $136.68 in goods. Insured delivery is a separate line, calculated at checkout for your country. That is a complete run, not a per-card rate with the box added later. Prices read live from our pricing service on 24 September 2026.
Lenormand runs through the same custom tarot card printing configurator used for every deck we produce.
20,000+ positive Etsy reviews (4.9★). We publish and print our own decks, and these are the shoppers who bought them. The shop behind those reviews is the one that would print yours.
The short answer: 36 cards, delivery calculated at checkout
| A 12-deck Lenormand run, 36 cards | Amount (USD) |
|---|---|
| 36 printed cards × 12 decks, PDF guide on request | $117.48 |
| Printed box × 12 | $19.20 |
| Goods, 12 decks at $11.39 each | $136.68 |
| Insured delivery | Calculated at checkout for your country |
The basis: 36 cards a deck at our standard 70 × 120 mm finished size, 350 gsm laminated card with a hidden black core, a printed folding box; a PDF guide is available on request. At twenty-four decks it is $10.17 a deck, $244.08 of goods; at sixty, $8.45 a deck, $507.00.
Why a Lenormand deck is cheaper than a tarot deck
Because it is 42 fewer cards. Our published tarot ladder — $15.90 a deck at twelve — is a price for a 78-card set, and it does not carry across to a shorter deck. Cards are priced by the card, so a 36-card Lenormand is the single biggest saving available in the whole esoteric family: the box costs the same, but the card block is less than half.
| Deck | Cards | Per deck at 12 | Goods at 12 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tarot, standard | 78 | $15.90 | $190.80 |
| Oracle example | 44 | $12.75 | $153.00 |
| Lenormand | 36 | $11.39 | $136.68 |
All three rows are the same box, the same PDF guide on request and the same card stock, read from the same configurator on the same day. Only the card count moves.
Card count and size are both fields
The count is something you type, not something you choose from a list. Anything from 30 to 1,500 cards prices live, at either of two named sizes — standard 2.76 × 4.72 in (70 × 120 mm, our tarot size) or compact 1.97 × 3.54 in (50 × 90 mm) — or at any custom size between 1.57 × 1.57 in and 12.2 × 18.5 in (40 × 40 mm to 310 × 470 mm). Below thirty there is no priced route: a twelve-card deck is refused. Every count carries its own figure, which is exactly why the 78-card tarot price is never restated beside a shorter deck.
Lenormand in practice is not always 36. Grand Tableau variants, added signifier cards and modern expansions push the count to 38, 40 or higher, and the configurator prices each of them at its own number rather than rounding up to ours. The compact 1.97 × 3.54 in (50 × 90 mm) preset is worth a look for Lenormand specifically — a 36-card deck at that size is $11.29 a deck, $135.48 of goods, with delivery calculated at checkout — because a smaller card suits a nine-card spread on a small table.
What is included, and what is not
Included at $11.39 a deck: your artwork printed front and back on 36 cards, a printed folding box; a PDF guide is available on request. Not included: layout work, if you need us to design rather than print.
A one-off preparation charge applies only where layout work is actually needed: $50 for a printed box layout, $50 for a card back, $150 for a PDF guidebook layout. All three are waived from sixty decks, deliberately — sixty is where a deck becomes a stocked line rather than a trial. Print-ready artwork built on our template carries none of it; the template is free and needs no signup, on the printing specification page.
Minimum order is 12 decks of your design, then multiples of twelve up to 192 per online order. Made in Ukraine, printed only after you approve the proof.
Selling it afterwards
You keep ownership of your artwork, you set your own retail price, and resale carries no territory or channel condition — see resale rights. If you are also stocking finished decks to sell alongside it, the ready-made side of the business is the 24-design tarot wholesale catalogue.
No application stands between you and the trade price. It begins at twelve decks, is charged automatically at the normal checkout, and asks for no resale certificate and no company number. If you want the exact figure for a count other than 36 before ordering, the quote form is answered by a person within 24 hours on business days.
Lead time and proof
Production runs 15–20 business days from the moment you approve the digital proof, not from the moment you order, and insured UPS transit into the United States adds 5–9 business days. Read both as planning estimates; destination and carrier service move the transit half. A ready-stock tarot design ordered alongside it leaves within 1-2 business days of the order and will usually arrive first. Physical printed samples are not offered at present.
Common questions
- How much does it cost to print a Lenormand deck?
A 36-card Lenormand deck at our standard 70 x 120 mm size is $11.39 a deck from a 12-deck minimum: $136.68 of goods, with a printed box and a PDF guide on request. Delivery is a separate line, calculated at checkout for your country. Read live on 4 November 2026.
- Why is a Lenormand deck cheaper to print than tarot?
It is 42 fewer cards. Cards are priced by the card, so a 36-card deck costs $82.68 in cards at 12 decks against $136.80 for a 78-card tarot set, while the printed box costs the same on both. That is the whole difference.
- Can I print a Lenormand deck that is not 36 cards?
Yes. The configurator prices any count from 30 to 1,500 cards, so a 38-card or 40-card variant prices at its own figure rather than at the 36-card number above. A 12-card deck is refused; 30 is the floor.
- What sizes can a Lenormand deck be printed at?
Two named presets - standard 70 x 120 mm, our tarot size, and compact 50 x 90 mm - plus any custom size from 40 x 40 mm to 310 x 470 mm. A 36-card deck at the compact size is $11.29 a deck, $135.48 of goods, with delivery calculated at checkout, tested live while building this page.
- What is the minimum order?
12 decks of your design, then multiples of 12 up to 192 per online order. The same minimum applies to every card family we print.
