A layered diamond medallion sits at the heart of a warm saffron-gold field, ringed by navy rosettes, red star bursts, curling vine and pale peacocks in the corners. This gold Persian mahjong mat has the sunlit richness of a court carpet, indigo and wine ornament scattered across a glowing ground.
On a set table it reads warm and regal. The saffron gold makes ivory tiles read crisp, and the star medallion at the middle anchors the whole field while the peacocks wait in the corners. Navy, cream or dark racks all work here.
The Art: Saffron Star Medallion
A layered diamond medallion around an eight-point star, navy rosettes, red palmettes and pale peacocks drawn in the formal Persian manner over saffron gold. The medallion holds the center, and the pattern radiates out, so the richest detail sits where your eyes rest between hands, framed by the walls rather than hidden. A blue floral border squares it off.
On the Table
Neoprene built, smooth fabric top on a non-slip rubber base that grips wood or glass. The soft surface quiets the shuffle and is gentle on tile faces. Walls hold. Racks, jokers and dice sit comfortably. Dye-sublimation sets the saffron, navy and wine into the fabric, so the carpet keeps its glow through years of weekly games with no cracking or fading.
Two Sizes: 23.5" or 31.5"
The 23.5" x 23.5" (60 x 60 cm) suits smaller tables, tight corners and travel to club night. The 31.5" x 31.5" (81 x 81 cm) is the full-size field most groups pick for a standard card table, with room for four walls, four racks and the discard pile. Four regulars at home? Size up.
A Gift for the Traditionalist

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