{"product_id":"kite-playing-cards-by-ark-1","title":"Kite Playing Cards by ARK","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe humble kite has been around for about 2,500 years, dating back to the Eastern Zhou period. Fast forward a bit, and by the Sui and Tang dynasties, paper was all the rage, leading to the birth of the “paper kite” (because why not?). This delightful trend has stuck around, bringing joy and a dash of artistry into homes everywhere. Kites, originally a simple pleasure, have become symbols of beauty and fun over the centuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis project takes its cues from traditional Chinese paper kites, capturing that childhood whimsy and thousands of years of culture, because who doesn’t love a bit of history with their fun?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKites, by the way, are the first batch of China’s intangible cultural heritage. Fancy that!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eARK is all about diving into the rich tapestry of themes and cultures, breathing life into them with detailed designs and top-notch craftsmanship. Each deck is like a little adventure waiting to unfold, showcasing the ARK team's knack for the unexpected.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut let’s be honest, we do tell the best stories from China.
