🪶 Collector’s Note

Published in 1979, The Stairs of Gold Tarot (original title: Le Scale d’Oro) is a masterwork of esoteric symbolism by Ciro Tavaglione, one of Italy’s most respected occult illustrators.

Each card is a complex synthesis of Western and Eastern traditions — combining Hebrew, Sanskrit, and Celestial letters, Zodiacal correspondences, and the 22 Paths of the Tree of Life.
Latin inscriptions, alchemical glyphs, and astrological seals surround each image, making this deck an extraordinary tool for both meditative study and ritual divination.

The artwork, rich in Renaissance color and Masonic ornamentation, reflects the alchemical ascent — the “Stairs of Gold” — toward spiritual illumination.
Printed by A.G. Müller in Switzerland, this edition represents the only official release of this iconic deck, long sought after by tarot historians and collectors.
