I just got my shipping notification for the new double boxed Ancherote today. A mate from another country told me he got his, too.
Looking forward to this πŸ˜ƒ.

Yes, I got my notification too. Also, he did say he would be doing some sales on the site back in November.
I haven't slept for ten days, because that would be too long.

Such a shame they closed up shop. Vivaldi was one of my favorite decks.

The double box is a tad too flimsy/thin for my taste but it's still nice.

Just received a shipping notification from GW for Florentia.

EDIT: Apparently it was a shipping confirmation- I received the cards today!

I have a new Teliad Heren deck for sale from this company.

I thought the same, but very glad to see it in my collection.

Just got my Florentia Aeterna in today. It looks nice, but both sides have way too much empty space in them. Also, someone didn't measure correctly. There is actually space between the two sides when folded up so that they cannot lay flat. I'm assuming they are all like this based on how the art fits on the box.
I've spent way more than I care to admit on playing cards, but I'll still buy just about anything that Lorenzo, Jackson, or Gio make.

Unfortunate to read that, I'd really like to pick an Γ†terna up. I like both decks a lot and gold on white is always timeless; this, paired with nice artwork would be a no-brainer. From what you describe it seems to be the same mock-up then as Ancherote. There is definitely quite some air in it aswell; which wouldn't be a huge bummer if the material would be a tad sturdier 😐...
That's kind of my only pet-peeve: when the choosen materials don't match the level of art and execution.

Maybe I'll simply settle for a pair of the Florentina decks.
