A full moon rises over a lotus pond at the heart of this moonlit mahjong mat, cherry blossom branches and two perched birds framing it against deep navy. Pale blue lotus open along the water below. A pink-blossom and navy border with corner lotus panels frames the whole night-garden scene.
On a dressed table it reads serene and a little magical. The dark center makes ivory tiles glow, and the moon gives each player a calm point to rest on between hands. Guests trace the blossom branches around the moon.
The Art: Moon Garden
Drawn in a layered chinoiserie style, the design sets a luminous full moon behind blossoming branches and a blue lotus pond, with perched songbirds and scrolling gold vines. Framed panels and pink-blossom borders contain it. The richest detail rings the edges and center; the mid-field stays readable for play.
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 navy 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 compact for smaller tables and travel. 31.5" x 31.5" (81 x 81 cm) is the full field for a standard card table, with room for four walls, four racks and the discards. Larger suits most regular groups.

Brush it off after play, wipe with a damp cloth when needed, and store it rolled, never folded.
