An old Chinese game: Mah Jong
The circa 1920 Mah Jong set below was on display at the National Heritage Museum during my visit to the Raymond Lowey exhibit. This item seems to be a good transition into my trip to Hong Kong.
I’ve just arrived in this vibrant city filled with as much old as there is new. An ancient form of Chinese poker as a past time has turned into souvenirs for foreigners to bring home and a way for contemporary lifestyle stores like GOD to continue to create novel products by transforming and reinventing an old tradition to seamlessly fit in today’s contemporary lifestyle.
