This is a beautiful Chinese mah-jongg set from around the 1930s. The case is made out of a very nice rosewood what I believe a shell inlay. The case is in great shape, considering his age. The front cover has a couple little cracks in it and the back of the case how is one small bit of wood that is shit off. All the pieces are in good shape, and all of the doors leading up to you. The cover sliding very nicely. Just a very nicely constructed set. Great decorative display piece for any home or for use.
