A wedding keepsake you actually use
Most wedding keepsakes end up in a box. A custom mahjong set ends up on the table, every week, for decades. Little Sparrow designs One of One American Mahjong sets around a couple's story — the venue, the flowers, a monogram, the date, the places that matter to you — and makes each set for you alone. Once approved, your design is never sold or reproduced for anyone else.
Every set is handmade in Phoenix, Arizona. Each one is a complete American Mahjong (NMJL) set of 160 tiles: the 152-tile set, including 8 jokers, plus 8 spares. Each tile is 26 × 36 × 12 mm, cut from solid pure white acrylic, with your artwork UV-printed onto the face.
Ideas for bridal showers, bachelorettes and the wedding party
Wedding sets are personal, so every commission is different. Some of the ways a set can be built around the occasion:
- Bridal shower gift — a set from the bridal party, designed around the couple's monogram, wedding colours or flowers.
- Bachelorette weekend — a set that remembers the trip: the city, the inside jokes, the group's name.
- Wedding party gifts — order more than one set in a single checkout for bridesmaids, mothers of the couple or a mahjong-loving family.
- Anniversary — a set for the first anniversary, or for a couple marking many years together.
- Your venue and invitation — the illustration from your stationery or a picture of the place you married, fitted across the suits.
Bridal party and bridesmaid sets
A matching family of sets makes a memorable bridal-party gift: one design for the couple and coordinated sets for bridesmaids, mothers of the couple or the friends who taught you to play. Each can carry its own name or initial while sharing the wedding palette, so the sets belong together without being identical.
Monograms, dates and your wedding palette
Send us your stationery, swatches or florist's palette and we match the set to it. A monogram and wedding date work beautifully on the Jokers, the Dragons or the printed backs — the details you'll see every time the tiles are turned.
An heirloom for every anniversary
A wedding set is made to outlast the day: solid acrylic tiles, UV-printed and hand-finished, designed to be played for decades and handed down. Many couples bring it out every anniversary — and guests who want to give one can do so with a gift card from Gift a Custom Set, so the couple design it themselves after the wedding.
Planning around your wedding date
Because each set is designed and made individually, timing matters. Design and approval typically take 3–4 weeks, depending on how quickly revisions come back, and production after approval typically takes about 4 weeks before the set ships with tracking. If the set is for a shower or a specific date, tell us the date when you enquire so we can plan the design schedule with you.
You see the complete set, tile by tile and in 3D, and give written approval before anything is printed. Revisions are unlimited, and you keep the rights to any artwork or photographs you supply.
How the tiles are made
After approval, each tile is cut from solid pure white acrylic, your artwork is UV-printed onto the face, and every tile is tumbled, polished, finished and packaged by hand in our Phoenix studio. The set arrives in its presentation case. US shipping is $15 per set, and we ship worldwide, with international shipping calculated at checkout.
