Red tulips and carnations wind through turquoise leaves and cobalt blooms across a white ground, gathered inside a central floral medallion. This blue Iznik mahjong mat is classic Turkish tilework, framed by a deep blue border thick with tulips and carnations. Vivid, balanced, and steeped in ceramic tradition.
On a set table the white ground keeps tiles legible while the blue-and-red florals frame the play. Cobalt and turquoise lead, red accents pop, and the central medallion gives the table a natural focal point. Guests notice the medallion first, then the tulips winding through the field, then how the bright ground frames four hands without any clutter in the middle.
The Art: Blue Tile Bloom
Stylized florals radiate from a central medallion in strict symmetry the way an Iznik tile panel would build them. Cobalt and turquoise carry the palette against white, with red tulips and carnations for contrast. Detail concentrates toward the border and center, so the field between stays open where discards land. It reads as heritage Turkish ceramic art, vivid and precise.
On the Table
The mat is neoprene, a smooth fabric top on a non-slip rubber base. The soft surface quiets the tile shuffle and protects tile faces. Walls stay standing. Racks, dice and jokers hold their spots. Dye-sublimation sets the cobalt and red into the fabric, so color lasts 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) suits smaller tables, a snug corner, or travel to the club. The 31.5" x 31.5" (81 x 81 cm) is the full-size field most groups pick on a standard card table, with room for four walls, four racks and the discard pile. Go bigger if your table allows.
A Gift for the Tile Lover

Brush it off after the game, wipe with a damp cloth if the evening got lively, and store it rolled rather than folded.
