This authentic vintage Chinese Mahjong set was handcrafted from bamboo and bone, likely dating from the mid-century period.

Unlike modern plastic Mahjong sets, bamboo and Ox bone tiles have a rich natural texture, smooth hand-feel, and aged patina that simply cannot be replicated. Each tile features traditional bamboo backing and a carved bone face, creating the distinctive weight, sound, and tactile experience that collectors love.

What makes this particular set especially unusual is its rare collection of Ox bonus tiles. Rather than the more commonly encountered Flower and Season combinations, this set features a unique group of decorative bonus tiles including a Cat tile and Mouse tile, motifs that are rarely encountered in vintage Mahjong sets and add significant character and collectability.

The original case has been lost over time, so this set now comes with a vintage-style wooden chest for storage and display.

Once sold, this exact set will never be available again.

FEATURES

• Authentic vintage Chinese Mahjong set
• Traditional bamboo-back and bone-face tiles
• Hand-carved and hand-painted details
• Rare Cat & Mouse bonus tiles
• Includes God of Wealth tile
• Includes Prosperity Treasure Pot tile
• Natural bamboo grain and aged bone texture
• 4 vintage bone dice included
• Comes with a vintage-style wooden chest
• One-of-a-kind collectible set

BONUS TILES INCLUDED

This set includes the standard 136 Mahjong tiles plus 8 decorative bonus tiles.

The bonus tiles feature:

• Cat Tile
• Mouse Tile
• Prosperity Treasure Pot Tile
• God of Wealth Tile

These unusual bonus tiles are significantly less common than the traditional Flower and Season tiles found in most vintage Mahjong sets, making this set especially appealing to collectors.

PLEASE NOTE

This is a traditional vintage Chinese Mahjong set, not a modern American Mahjong set.

It does not include modern American Mahjong jokers, racks, pushers, or an NMJL card.

Minor imperfections, small scratches, natural discoloration, and signs of age are expected and are part of the charm of vintage bamboo and bone Mahjong tiles.

If you would like additional photos, videos, measurements, or information, please feel free to message me anytime — I'm happy to help.

This vintage set is carefully sourced from China and shipped with protective packaging.
