Description
keyboard_arrow_downA standard Chinese tile is around 40 mm tall and around 15 mm deep. These are 36 tall and 20 deep, which is a different proportion: shorter than standard in height, considerably thicker through the body.
The depth is what you feel. A 20 mm tile has real mass, it stands without leaning, and a wall built from them holds its line when it is pushed. Thin tiles are cheaper to mould and they fall over.
Real jade mahjong exists and is priced accordingly, in the thousands, and it is heavy enough that most tables are not built for it. PMMA acrylic in a jade tone gives the depth of colour and the cool surface without that.
The material is worth naming precisely. PMMA is the optical grade acrylic used for lenses, and it is why the colour reads as material seen through rather than a coating applied on. A cheaper resin in the same colour looks flat by comparison.
Ten kilos. This is a set for a table it stays on, not one that travels to a friend's house. Anyone buying for a group that rotates hosts should look at a lighter set, and anyone buying for a folding table should check what the table is rated for.
A set this heavy needs a case that holds the tiles square rather than letting them shift, because ten kilos of loose tiles in transit is what chips corners. The case is fitted rather than a bag, which is the right answer at this weight.
A barely damp cloth. Never a solvent, which fogs PMMA permanently. Out of direct sun, and stored in the case rather than loose.

Experience the timeless joy of Mahjong with beautifully crafted sets designed for both play and display.
Whether you’re hosting a casual game night or learning the game for the first time, our collections bring together strategy, fun, and a premium aesthetic that makes every session feel special.
At the beginning of the game, all Mahjong tiles are shuffled face down on the table. Each player then stacks their tiles into a wall. Once the walls are connected together, every player draws their starting hand of tiles.
Players take turns drawing one tile and discarding another. The goal is to slowly build the perfect combination of sequences, pairs, and matching sets while paying attention to the tiles discarded by opponents.
Win the game by completing a full Mahjong hand before the other players. Strategy, observation, and timing are key — every decision can change the outcome of the game and make each round exciting and unique.
More than just a board game, each Mahjong set is a true collector’s piece. From elegant tiles to unique designs and premium finishes, every detail is made to stand out.
Build your own collection, showcase your favorite sets at home, and enjoy products that combine entertainment with beautiful décor.
Discover why hundreds of Mahjong enthusiasts choose The Mahjong Corner for premium quality sets, elegant designs, and unforgettable game nights.

It depends on which game you play and where the set will live, and those two answers narrow it quickly. For traditional Chinese play on a table that stays set up, a large heavy tile is the right choice: these run 36 by 28 by 20 mm, thicker through the body than most, so the wall holds its line while it is pushed. For a set that moves between houses, 10 kg is the wrong answer and a lighter one will serve better.
Genuine jade sets exist. They are carved rather than moulded, which puts them in the thousands and makes them heavy enough that many tables are not built for the load. Most of what is sold as jade is a jade tone in resin, and there is nothing wrong with that as long as it is stated plainly. This set is PMMA acrylic in a jade colour, which gives the cool surface and the depth of tone without the price of the stone.
Three things carry the cost here. PMMA is optical grade acrylic, the same material used for lenses, and it holds colour with a depth that cheaper resin does not. Size adds material: at 20 mm deep these tiles use considerably more of it than a thin export tile, which is how the set reaches 10 kg. And a fitted case is a made object in its own right, which at this weight is not optional.
Some are. Pre war sets in bone and bamboo, and the early cased sets that came out of China in the 1920s, have a collector market, and condition and completeness decide most of it. A set missing tiles is worth a fraction of a complete one. Ivory sets carry legal restrictions in many places, which limits how they can be traded. Mid century plastic sets are usually worth playing with rather than selling, which is not a bad outcome.
