TESSAMERE

American mahjong · 160 tiles

The Conservatory

Welcome to the Conservatory.

A glasshouse in full bloom, drawn tile by tile. The faces stay face down until the set arrives.

Coming to Amazon in 2027

The tiles

Face down until launch

Every face is drawn for the set, with the traditional suit marks kept and the number in every corner, so a table that has played for years reads it at a glance. We are keeping them face down until the set arrives.

The tile

Four layers, read from the edge

Each tile is four layers of acrylic bonded together: a white face, two grays and a mottled jade back. Turn a tile on its side and you see all four.
