The 1/4/7 are pink hearts, standing in for the circle (dot) suit, the 2/5/8 are the letters of the Hebrew word for love - ahava - אהבה - representing the character suit. This design is inspired by the quadripartite sculpture by Robert Indiana, gifted to the Israel Museum in 1977. And the 3/6/9 are roses, standing in for the bamboo suit. The bonus tiles include a love letter with a star of David, a hamsa with a heart and a pair of lovebirds. Did you know lovebirds are a common motif in ketubot, paired with the phrase "I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine" -
אני לדודי ודודי לי.
