Coral Poppy Mahjong Mat - Mah Jongg Table Mat

A wide coral poppy blooms at the heart of this coral poppy mahjong mat, papery petals circling a dark seeded eye, flanked by two more open poppies and crowned with fuzzy green buds. Sage foliage scrolls through the blush star, wrapped in a rose panel and a layered grandmillennial border of green leaves and small pink flowers on cream.

Soft and generous. The coral blooms glow against the pale ground, feathery leaves give racks a gentle backdrop, and the floral border layers pattern the way a good chintz does. Guests read it as pretty and a little nostalgic.

The Art: Poppy and Chintz

Each poppy is drawn in warm coral with fine veining and a dark center, set among ferny green leaves and curling gold vines. A rose step-frame holds the trio, and the outer band layers leafy scrollwork and dainty blossoms in true grandmillennial fashion. Detail gathers at the frame and corners, leaving the center open where hands work between rounds. Coral poppies wrapped in cottage florals is the character of this piece.

On the Table

Neoprene body, smooth fabric top, non-slip rubber base. The soft surface hushes the shuffle and spares tile faces. Walls hold their line. Racks, jokers and dice sit steady on the low-friction top, and dye-sublimation printing sets the corals and greens into the fabric so the color survives years of weekly games without cracking or fading.

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 carrying to the club. The 31.5" x 31.5" (80 x 80 cm) is the full-size field most groups pick for a standard card table, roomy enough for four walls, four racks and the discard pile. Pick the larger one if your four like space to spread.

Brush it clean after the hands are done, wipe with a damp cloth after a lively evening, and store it rolled rather than folded.
