A shimmering lily pond stretches across this water lily pond mahjong mat, pink and yellow water lilies floating on green pads while a green Japanese bridge arches over the far water and willows trail down the banks, all in soft impressionist brushwork. A willow-and-lily band steps out to a border of iris, poppies and lupine in Monet's garden colors.
It reads like a stroll through Giverny. The dappled pond keeps tiles easy to read, the bridge sits at the back so the water stays open, and the flower border frames the play like a garden path. Guests get a calm, impressionist-garden feeling right away.
The Art: The Lily Pond
The pond is painted in broken strokes of green, lilac and rose with lilies dotting the surface, the arched bridge and willows rendered in the Monet manner. A willow band frames the panel, and the outer border layers iris, poppies and lupine in soft garden tones. Detail fills the banks but leaves the water open where hands move between rounds. A full water-lily pond, not a single motif, is what carries this design.
On the Table
Neoprene construction, smooth fabric top, non-slip rubber base. The soft surface quiets the shuffle and protects tile faces. Walls stay put. Racks, jokers and dice hold steady on the low-friction top, and dye-sublimation printing sets the color deep in the fabric so nothing cracks or fades through years of play.
Two Sizes: 23.5" or 31.5"
The 23.5" x 23.5" (60 x 60 cm) is a compact square for smaller tables, tight corners and travel to the club. 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. Size up if your foursome likes room.
