Description:

Offered for adoption is a simply lovely game with thick bone tiles and a very neat Rosewood case with all its original drawer pulls.

The one bamboo is a stylish sitting sparrow design. There are a gorgeous set of flowers with this game. There 2 complete bouquets each numbered 1-4. One set is herbal flowers and the second is vintage writing tools and parchments.

This game is from the early to mid 1940's. It can be dated by the "simple" style character tiles.

The game is housed in its original Rosewood box - all the brass corner trim is in place. I thas both its top handles and they both appear strong.

There are a total of 152 tiles with a lovely bone to bamboo ratio "40/60" - 40% bone and 60% bamboo. 152 tiles means this game has all its original tiles (148 playing tiles). Added to these 148 tiles are 4 matching tiles that have been stickered for use as jokers. Because of the added tiles this game can be played with using National Mah Jong League (NMJL) or traditional Chinese rules - the best of both worlds!

My Mahj group have had many happy hours playing with this game. With the addition of the extra tiles this game can be played with right out of the box - whatever your style of play.

Let me know if I can help with any more information.

This lovely little game is waiting to head to its new home!
