Coral poppies and blue iris radiate from a central rosette on this Art Nouveau mahjong mat, wrapped in whiplash gold vines and strands of pale pink pearl beading. Sage, terracotta and soft blue fill the panels between. A stained-glass style border of florals and gold linework frames the whole belle-epoque design.
On a set table it reads elegant and turn-of-the-century. The muted jewel tones set off ivory tiles without shouting, and the symmetrical bloom gives every seat a matching view. Art Nouveau fans recognize the Mucha-era style at once.
The Art: Belle Epoque Bloom
Drawn in the manner of 1900s Art Nouveau, the design curls gold whiplash lines around poppies, iris and pearl swags, arranged in a radiating mandala over muted panels. The richest ornament rings the border and the center; the mid-field stays calm enough that tiles and racks read clearly.
On the Table
The mat is neoprene, a smooth fabric top over a non-slip rubber base. Its soft surface quiets the shuffle, spares tile faces, and keeps four walls standing through the discard pile. Racks, dice and jokers hold their spots. Dye-sublimation printing sets the color 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) suits smaller tables, corners and travel. 31.5" x 31.5" (81 x 81 cm) is the full-size field for a standard card table, with room for four walls, four racks and the discards. Choose the larger if your table can hold it.

Brush it off after the game, wipe with a damp cloth if needed, and store it rolled, never folded.
