Collectors hold the winning cards
Los Angeles Times
|September 28, 2025
Li Jing talks of how, at the U.S. National Sports Collectors Convention in Illinois in July, a collector examined a card that her company made.
-
Collectible cards bearing Palace Museum elements are popular worldwide.
(PROVIDED TO CHINA DAILY)
The surface of the card, one of thousands on display at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, features a golden drawing of the Hall of Supreme Harmony at the Palace Museum in Beijing, also known as the Forbidden City. The card’s edges are inlaid with delicate filigree, and at the center is a tiny natural gemstone.
This thin card, less than one four-hundredth of an inch thick, embodies the marriage of centuries-old Chinese filigree inlay artisanship and modern industrial precision.
“The Hall of Supreme Harmony card is from our Heritage series,” said Li, co-founder of Suplay, a Chinese designer toy and collectibles company founded in 2019.
The business produces collectible cards, figurines and pop-culture merchandise under its brand Kakawow.
