Poolside Reads Mahjong Mat
Bring vacation energy to the table with Poolside Reads, created as part of The Stationery Escape x Mahjong by SI™ artist collaboration with designer Heidi Kundin.
This sun-soaked design captures the feeling of the perfect pool day, with sunbathers stretched out on striped towels, colorful umbrellas, donut-shaped floats, swaying palms, and playful poolside details surrounding bright turquoise water.

The Material
SI Signature™ faux leather features a flexible leatherette profile with a subtle grain texture and leather-look playing surface. The material is approximately 0.97 mm thick, with a soft polyester knit backing that helps protect your table.
Please note that this is intentionally a thin leatherette mat—not a thick, padded, cushioned, or neoprene-style mat.
The Finish
The wipe-clean, mold- and mildew-resistant surface has a smooth matte finish that allows tiles to move easily.
The Collaboration & Production
Created as part of The Stationery Escape x Mahjong by SI™ artist collaboration with designer Heidi Kundin. Each mat is fabricated, studio-printed, precision-cut, and finished in our U.S.-based studio.

Please Note
This mat is made from a thin, approximately 0.97 mm leatherette material. It does not have the thickness, weight, padding, cushioning, or rubber backing of a neoprene mat. The slim leatherette profile is not for everyone.
Customers who prefer a thicker, cushioned playing surface may prefer one of our 3MM neoprene mats instead.
Because each mat is studio-printed, slight color variations may occur. Colors may also appear different in person due to screen settings, lighting, and photography.
Each mat is crafted to order and is final sale. No returns or exchanges are accepted.
