A full vase of golden sunflowers fills the center of this Van Gogh inspired mahjong mat, blooms in every stage from bud to full flower crowding the cream ground. An ornate border of sunflower rosettes, scrolls and seed bands frames the whole cheerful bouquet.
Bring it to the table and it warms the whole room. The golden yellows make ivory tiles and dark racks pop, and the big central bouquet gives each player a bright focal point. Art lovers know the sunflowers immediately.
The Art: Sunflowers
Drawn in the post-impressionist manner of Van Gogh's famous sunflower still life, the design packs a vase of golden blooms against cream, bounded by a decorative sunflower border. The bouquet carries the detail; the surrounding ground stays open enough for play.
On the Table
The mat is neoprene, a smooth fabric top over a non-slip rubber base. Its soft surface quiets the shuffle, protects tile faces, and keeps four walls standing through the discard pile. Racks, dice and jokers stay put. Dye-sublimation printing sets the golden color into the fabric, 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 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. Sunny kitchens usually want the big one.

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