These are bamboo tiles. The bamboo surfaces are relatively clean. They have a solid, weighty feel, and the sensation of the tiles hitting each other is pleasant (in my personal opinion). The characters on the faces have not faded. There is no peeling on the sides of the bamboo tiles or on the contact surfaces, but there are numerous stains and blemishes characteristic of bamboo tiles (see photos 6 and 7). There is no discomfort when holding or stacking them. A case is included, but the handle is detached and replaced with string, and it is generally deteriorated. The scoring sticks are complete. If you don't mind the stains, they can still be used for a long time. Overall, they are items with some staining. Please check the photos and consider purchasing after you are satisfied with their condition.
