New Addition.

While waiting for new acquisitions to arrive, another tile set has been added to the Tile Set Galleries section. This may be found in Gallery 2.0/Synthetic/ tile set 243. It has the standard compliment of tile groups and accessories although the Wind indicator is missing. The tiles appear to be of a ‘Chinese Bakelite’ composition and contain an interesting Flowers group and #1 Circle tiles. As with all the tile sets on this site, they are hand carved. The individual tiles are backed with a translucent, red Catalin wafer.

Examples of ‘Chinese Bakelite’ tile sets and their tile composition may also be found in The Mahjong Collector magazine advertised below on the Home page.
