Details
Box (190x160x191mm), of Chinese origin, is a rather square 5 drawer model with a (somewhat split) sliding front. Made from attractive, dark red rosewood. With the usual copper ornaments. The front features fake-jade characters surrounded by gold colored decorations.
Tiles (19x27x11mm) are Chinese. They are made of average quality, thin bone and bamboo. They are a bit to small for the drawers. The engraving is standard. There are 4 spare tiles.
Counters are of standard quality bone with Western denomination.
Dice (4x) are made of bone with Chinese points. Their container is a Cricket box.
Wind discs are made of white bone and feature green characters with red initials. Their container is a Ming box.
The set lacks an instruction manual.
Box and drawers are almost completely restored.
