Our seventh design and one near and dear to our hearts. Because the mountains, and all that they represent, are in our bones. We are Texans at heart but the mountains fill us up. It’s the flora and fauna and water and air. All wrapped in a stunning landscape of color. And distilled onto a tiny mahjong playing card.
These playing cards are for when you are traveling far flung and don't want to lug the whole kit and caboodle around (shout out to all you Carry-On Road Warriors). We did some market research and, by far, the top priority for people was the fun/unique artwork that is very easy to read in many different lights (fireside in the mountains, beachside at dusk (these babies are waterproof!), at a rooftop bar in Marrakech) so these are NOT like normal playing cards. We like to do things big, bold and beautiful at TML.
They are carried in a sturdy box that also functions as a card holder for your wall stack. Here are some tips:
- Bring your NMJL card if you are playing American Mahjong.
- Shuffle, cut the deck, and deal just like a regular card game.
- No walls, but instead stack the cards in the carrying box and that becomes your communal wall.
Travel and play has now become easy peasy. Yes, we know there are many die-hard players that will always want to travel with the Real Deal tiles and to you, we salute you and we made the perfect bag traveler just for you. This is for those leapfrogging the globe, light as a feather.
Who is our mountain gal?
She may reside in the city but she comes alive in the mountains. She works hard and she plays harder. As she likes to tease, she'll try anything once as long as it doesn't maim her or put her (or any of her friends) in jail. She's intense and intensely admired. Her passion is her trademark and she could lead an army if called upon. But retreating to the mountains now and then is a prerequisite for her success. This gal has gumption and she cannot be fenced in.
