Four inky ravens perch in gilded roundels among red, black and ivory roses, thorned vines and dark ivy winding across a black damask ground, a single crimson rose sealed in a gold circle at the center. This black gothic mahjong mat has a dramatic, romantic-dark mood, all deep shadow, blood-red bloom and glinting gold, edged with fleur-de-lis and tiny crosses.
On a set table it is bold and a little theatrical. The near-black field throws ivory tiles into sharp relief, and the ravens in their circles are the first thing that pulls a guest closer. Gold, black or crimson racks lean right into the drama.
The Art: Raven and Rose
Painterly ravens with real feather detail sit in gold-ringed medallions, surrounded by roses in oxblood, jet and blush and coils of thorn and ivy. The center stays dark and open with just a rose roundel, so the play field, where hands rest between the walls, breathes while the ravens and roses hold the corners. Fleur-de-lis and cross motifs finish the border.
On the Table
Neoprene made, smooth fabric top over a non-slip rubber base that grips any surface. The cushioned face quiets the shuffle and protects tile faces. Walls stay up. Racks, jokers and dice sit steady. Dye-sublimation sets the black, gold and red into the fabric, so the drama keeps its depth through years of weekly games without cracking or fading.
Two Sizes: 23.5" or 31.5"
The 23.5" x 23.5" (60 x 60 cm) fits smaller tables, cozy corners and travel to the club. The 31.5" x 31.5" (81 x 81 cm) is the full-size field most groups choose for a standard card table, with room for four walls, four racks and the discard pile. Four at a fixed table? Go large.

Brush it off after the game, wipe with a damp cloth if the night got lively, and keep it rolled, never folded.
