Mahjong

The old mahjong in a box decorated with floral motifs and birds… an oriental gem; the most famous board game born in China in the 13th century. The name literally means “hemp bird”, which also brings us back to the depiction on the beautiful box - even if with some signs of aging. The nice curiosity: it spread especially, speaking of Italy, initially in Ravenna; where in fact the name was Italianized to “magiò”.
