Summary[edit]

Description
English: Comparing the old and modern mahjong tiles. The Dragon tiles in two variations, from left to right, ZHONG (Red Dragon), FA (Green Dragon), BAI (White Dragon). The picture shows the difference in size and carving style. The modern tiles shown here are 1 3/8" tall, 1" wide and 3/4" thick. The old tiles are 1/32nd shy of 1" tall, 1/32nd shy of 3/4" wide and half inch thick. Notice that the white dragon has no carving on the old style tiles while the modern tiles used an empty blue frame to represent "white".
