Our love of history (yes, we dug out our BA, Art History degree for this) collided with our love of mahjong. We scoured the art historical record over the last 250 years and discovered the breadth and variety of tile art was more extensive and even more fabulous than we ever understood. We took our creative liberties (of course) but used history and art as our guide.

For the first time, we introduced seasons in this set, so multiple variations of play can be achieved (American, Chinese, and Hong Kong we SEE you). Not to be dismissed, we also included honor tiles so the Singaporean and Riichi style of play can also happen. This is one set that can play the most popular mahjong variations in the world. We double-dog dare you to learn more than one way to play. Brain meet mahj.

Who is our Classic Gal?

A devourer of books and information, she gravitates toward long and winding conversations. She knows a lot about a lot, but humbly so. Family heirlooms and vintage relics she collects. She honors tradition yet is enchanting in her many eccentricities. An avid history buff, few want to go up against her in a game of trivia. While she is grounded, warm, and graceful, she also laughs so hard she cries on the regular. This duality is her charm.

Materials:

Hand-painted custom inks on custom cornflower blue acrylic
Keep out of extended direct sunlight to avoid tile fading and discoloration

Dimensions:

1" x 1-7/16" x 7/16"
To improve legibility and allow our original artwork room to breathe, the tile dimension is slightly larger than the standard tournament size.

Included in each mahjong set purchase are a tile bag and a field guide.
