Yet another set of cards based on Chinese chess pieces. Similar cards are called Si Se Pai -- Four Colour cards; and have been featured several times before (Eg This, This, and This ). However, the deck featured here has but two suits, red and black.
The red suit. In the middle of each card are found depictions of two Chinese lanterns. On them are written the words 棋牌 QiPai = Chess Cards.
The black suit. Like actual chinese chess sets, the characters for the equivalent ranks are written slightly differntly between the suits.
This deck is unusual, as the black suit has an extra card, (shown on the far right of the image) which is the "Brave" 勇.
