Amber is the tortoiseshell set: every tile is solid amber-brown acrylic with the warm, glowing pattern of real tortoiseshell, and the faces are painted in bright jewel colours that pop against it. The dots are floral medallions in coral, lime and sky blue, the bams are lime and blue bamboo with a peacock on the 1 Bam, and the craks are numerals in pink. The winds are curling letters with a butterfly perched on each, the flowers are eight blooms from roses to cosmos, the dragons are a green and a pink lion mask and a golden frame, and the jokers are butterflies. Set out on the table it looks like a vintage vanity tray.
