White almond blossoms open along a spreading branch across a swirling sky-blue ground on this Van Gogh inspired mahjong mat, the limbs reaching up and out toward the corners. Gold-outlined blossom sprigs scatter the field. An Art Nouveau border of scrolling vines and cream flowers frames the whole spring-branch design.
On a set table it feels fresh and open. The soft blue ground keeps tiles and racks clear, and the single blossoming branch gives the surface a calm, painterly focus. It's a brighter, airier take than a busy medallion mat.
The Art: Painterly Branch
Drawn in the post-impressionist manner of Van Gogh's blossom work, the design sets white almond flowers on a gnarled branch over a swirling blue sky, bounded by an Art Nouveau vine border. The branch and border carry the detail; the open sky between keeps the playing field readable.
On the Table
The mat is neoprene with a smooth fabric top and a non-slip rubber base. Its soft surface quiets the shuffle, protects tile faces, and keeps four walls standing through a long night. Racks, dice and jokers hold their places. Dye-sublimation printing sets the blue and gold into the fabric, so weekly play won't crack or fade it.
Two Sizes: 23.5" or 31.5"
23.5" x 23.5" (60 x 60 cm) is the compact square for smaller tables and travel. 31.5" x 31.5" (81 x 81 cm) is the full field a standard card table wants, with room for four walls, four racks and the discards. Size up for a regular game.

Brush it clean after the game, wipe with a damp cloth if needed, and keep it rolled rather than folded.
