Small hedgehogs nestle among irises, oak leaves and trailing blooms at the edges of this sage hedgehog mahjong mat, drawn in a William Morris-inspired style on a soft sage-teal ground. A scalloped center panel with a faint tonal scroll holds the middle. The center stays open and calm.
On a set table it reads woodland and gentle. Guests notice the hedgehogs first, then the lilac irises and foliage, then the panel at center. The border is dense, yet the pale center stays clear, so ivory tiles and dark racks read cleanly with room to play.
The Art: Hedgehog and Iris
Drawn in an Arts-and-Crafts hand, the hedgehogs, irises and leaves gather density at the border and corners where the walls rise, leaving the center panel clear beneath the tiles. Scrolling oak-leaf vines lace the field. Dye-sublimation keeps the sage soft and the lilacs gentle.
On the Table
Neoprene gives it a smooth fabric top and a non-slip rubber base that grips the table. The soft surface quiets tile shuffling and treats tile faces kindly. Walls stay standing. Racks, jokers and dice sit where you place them. Dye-sublimation printing sets the color in the fibers, so weekly games won't crack or fade it.
Two Sizes: 23.5" or 31.5"
23.5" x 23.5" (60 x 60 cm) is the compact square for smaller tables, tight corners and travel to the club. 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 discard pile. Full table? Size up.
