These mahjong sets aren't just luxurious; they will also keep you entertained
Mahjong is a game that has transcended time. With smartphones and technology constantly evolving and becoming part of many people's daily lives, and the rise of e-sports, it might be hard to imagine anyone still playing traditional games such as mahjong. The game is perfect both as a pastime and as a way for families and friends to spend time together. And when it comes to Hong Kong traditions, it's impossible not to think of mahjong.
This may also be why the game is undergoing a resurgence, ironically, partly thanks to social media and how aesthetically pleasing the set pieces can be. There are a lot of other luxe games out there but nothing beats classic mahjong. We've rounded up the most luxurious sets that you need to get your hands on––whether it's for you to play, to gift, or to add to your collection.
1. Brunello Cucinelli Mahjong Set
Brunello Cucinelli's first mahjong set is a contemporary take on the traditional Chinese game thanks to its use of fine materials and meticulous craftsmanship including European walnut wood and laser-engraving.
Consisting of 144 playing pieces, the hand-decorated set made in Italy also has a case made from two stackable trays and cover. Finally, the two dices are made by hand from European walnut wood.
