The Mahjong Tile Carver Greeting Card by Alvin Lam cardholder SAFE - DurableFollowing in her father's footsteps at age 13, Ho Sau Mei began training in the art of carving mahjong tiles by hand. Now in her mid 60s, Ho carries on her family legacy in the same shop where she grew up, while most of the industry has turned to factory made, mass produced plastic tiles.
