THE STORY OF TRACH/BACH MAHJONG
Renowned photographer and Emmy-award winning director Robert Trachtenberg learned to play mahjong two years ago. This quickly evolved into a weekly game with a group of rabid “mahj” enthusiasts. Among them, they have at least fifteen vintage sets— and a lot of Trachtenberg’s money.
Every tile is infused with wit, flair, and a riot of color. Trachtenberg collaborated closely with legendary illustrator Tom Bachtell (whose work has been featured in The New Yorker magazine for over twenty years) and the team here at Crisloid in a creative partnership. We’re sure you’ll love the result — a hand-painted, wildly original, inventive take on the classic game.
Crisloid is honored to have had a hand in making sets for Ten Flowers, Lowe, Royal, Cardinal, Eastern Distributors, Red Coin, and MJLA. Now we are excited to add Robert Trachtenberg and Tom Bachtell to our circle of collaborators.
Every set is handcrafted and proudly made in America.

Last night at a friend’s home, I played on this set and it was magical! The tiles when set up look like normal tiles though a bit larger and creamier, even a bit sensuous in their shape and material, but still “normal”. Boy was I in for a surprise! Once the tiles were dealt and I started to turn over each tile, I was dazzled, speechless, truly amazed and overwhelmed by their beauty and wit. The entire first game I felt like I was in an art exhibit and had a dreadfully difficult time focusing, as all I could do was marvel at the spectacular artwork on the tiles! What a joy it was playing with these tiles❤️,win or loose it was wonderful.
Ps. While I was overwhelmed throughout the first game, I did manage to get it together and go on to win the next two of the four games that I played! I cannot say enough good things about this truly magical mah-jongg set. It’s a wonderful feast for the eyes! It will be humbling to now go back to my simple ordinary set…

Didn’t expect to get my set until after Christmas, so it’s arrival was a huge surprise! As far as I’m concerned, Christmas came early – I LOVE my set!!!!
Showed it off to my Mahjong group over Google Duo as we were playing online. We can’t wait to play in person once COVID is over.
