Description
NOTE: FINE ART AMERICA WATERMARK WILL NOT APPEAR ON PURCHASED IMAGE.
An antique mahjong set found in a wonderful old antique shop in Olney, Maryland. This image was taken with specific care given to having the light (from a flashlight sitting on a pillow, sitting on a kitchen stool) accentuate the lovely carving on the tiles and dice. Camera Nikon D40x and 60mm Nikon lens.

Congratulations on your sale! My mother played Mahjong, and I have her original antique set in it's original wooden box. Thank you for memories!
Lois Bryan replied:
Carol, thank you for your note ... this set is very dear to me ... I got it in an antique store years ago ... and I still have it's original box. Not wood, not sure quite what it is, but I can tell, it was well loved and well used!! The pieces themselves, as you can maybe tell by the photo are so smooth to the touch ... I love just holding them. So glad it brought back memories for you!! That's awesome!!!!
