Full Review
This is Yellow Mountain's display-worthy Chinese Mahjong set. Where the Bleau goes for soft-case value, the Classic puts everything inside a fitted wooden case that looks the part on a shelf and protects the tiles for the long haul. Inside you get 148 medium-size tiles plus the full complement of Chinese-style accessories — a wooden spinner, dice, and scoring sticks.
It comes in three finishes that change the tile color and case look: Champagne Gold, Jet Set (black), and Emerald (translucent green). All three are the same set mechanically, so the choice comes down to which look you prefer.
At a higher price than the soft-case sets, it earns its keep as a gift or as the set you keep set up for regular play. It's for Chinese-style gameplay only.
Who Is This Set Best For?
Chinese Mahjong players who want a wooden-case set as a centerpiece or a gift, and like choosing among Champagne Gold, Jet Set, and Emerald finishes.
Our Verdict
The Yellow Mountain Champagne Gold Chinese Set earns our “Premium Pick” designation with a rating of 4.7 out of 5. Yellow Mountain's Classic Chinese set in a handsome wooden case — 148 tiles plus a spinner, dice, and scoring sticks. A centerpiece set offered in three finishes: Champagne Gold, Jet Set, and Emerald.
