The useful bit, upfront

Give the Ikat Green set to a new player, the Ikat Green mat to a host with a table worth protecting, and the clear racks to a group of four who meet every week.

Looking for Christmas gifts for a mahjong lover? Give a complete mahjong set if they still borrow one, or the extras that make their table feel finished if they don't. These three mahjong gifts from Addison Ross are sold separately but designed to pair, so you can give one or build the whole game night between you.

Ikat Green Lacquered Mahjong Set: for the player ready for their own

Ideal for the friend who hosts game night or has just caught the mahjong bug. The Ikat Green Lacquered Mahjong Set is complete for both Chinese and American Mahjong, so it suits whichever rules their group plays, with 164 tiles, two dice and a wind indicator inside a lacquered Ikat box.

It is made to be left out on a shelf rather than hidden in a cupboard: the box measures 36.5 x 27 x 8cm and weighs about 5kg with the tiles in.

Ikat Green Mahjong Mat: for the host with a good table

Ideal for anyone who plays on a dining table they care about. The Ikat Green Mahjong Mat has a fabric top and a non-slip backing, and Addison Ross designed it to protect the table and dampen the clatter of tiles, which helps on late games when the rest of the house is asleep.

It matches the Ikat Green set, so the two make a coordinated pair under the tree.

Clear Mahjong Racks: for a regular group of four

Ideal for a weekly foursome. Clear Mahjong Racks - 4-Piece Set gives every player an adjustable, extendable clear acrylic rack to hold and show their tiles, and because they are clear they sit happily beside any colour of set they already own.
