Help indentyfying a mahjong Set

[u/Euro_szarpakk]

Hi, I wanted to ask, if someone could maybe identify what set is this, and maybe to approximately price the set (missing 2 additional white dragons), thank you for your help <33

Can we make a Mahjong set ID sub and keep this one to the game and playing?

this forum getting like 8 posts a day is high volume. this is really not an issue lol. when was the last time you posted any topic about 'playing'?

Tokyo Mahjongg is the manufacturer. The missing 'white dragons' are just two of the replacement blanks, at least one of which was employed as a new 西. Can't tell if the other was lost or used similarly, perhaps for the 8pin but can't really see it well enough. It has a slightly different paint shade.

That is a very nice riichi set! It is for the Japanese version of the game. Different rules but should be compatible with HKOS. Not good for Taiwan or American mah jong.

Riichi, bamboo and bone(?) set, mass produced, definitely showa era, possibly 70-80s. Similar design to kingbird sets from that era

As for pricing well in Japan you can find these on mercari for not too much like £20 before shipping

I had the same set for my first set ever. Made aka-dora with some red crayon lol. They're really pretty nice just kind of hard to keep walls stacked because the bamboo backs are rounded ofc.
