<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 10080954, member: 360&quot;]Mahjong tiles were traditionally made by hand, by dovetailing bone tops and bamboo bases together. </p><p><br /></p><p>The more BONE you have, the higher quality the set is, because bone is harder to get, and harder to carve than bamboo. Most sets will have approx 30/70, or 40/60 bone/bamboo ratios. A higher-quality set will have something like 50/50, or 60/40, 70/30, some rare cases have 80/20, or more. But sets were pumped out literally in their MILLIONS in the early 1900s, so the super-super high-quality sets are not excessively common. </p><p><br /></p><p>A good quality set will have a bone/bamboo ratio of at least 30/70 or 40/60, or more. If it&#039;s smaller than that (10/90, 20/80), then it&#039;s a cheap set.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
