Feb 11 at 19:11 comment added Eric Duminil @MarkReed Thanks a lot, I didn't know that. I guess I was referring to Paris pattern, then?
Feb 11 at 18:19 comment added Mark Reed All of these cards are French; that refers to the suits and basic design. The cards that are narrower than Poker cards are Bridge cards.

Jun 15, 2020 at 16:50 comment added ilkkachu @DarrelHoffman & Eric, yeah, I was just wondering because apart from the art of the face cards, Glorfindel's set looks pretty much like this one :) The artwork here is the one I've most commonly seen, so perhaps more standard in a way. I thought I've also heard the "standard" cards being called French playing cards and wikipedia does seem to at least imply a connection too, mentioning "a standard 52-card deck of French playing cards". Though of course you could have shorter decks with the French suits and similar images, too.
Jun 15, 2020 at 15:45 comment added Darrel Hoffman @ilkkachu The letters on the royal cards may also be different. "R", "D", and "V", instead of "K", "Q", and "J". (Stands for "Roi", "Dame", and "Valet")

Jun 15, 2020 at 14:42 comment added Eric Duminil @ilkkachu : The design is different. Note that you can play poker with French playing cards just fine. In movies or at the casino, you'll probably see poker cards : youtu.be/5VC7BuWahBM?t=64
