The Charleston Club Story: How a Scottsdale-Based American Mah Jongg Company Found Its Players
Scottsdale, United States – May 18, 2026 / The Charleston Club /
The Charleston Club, a Scottsdale, Arizona-based American Mah Jongg company, ships curated American Mah Jongg sets, racks, mats, bags, accessories, the annual National Mah Jongg League card, and a designer line of 36MM Sparkle Tiles across the United States and to Canada. Owner Dolores Parrish runs the company from Scottsdale and curates every product in the catalog.
For enthusiasts, Mah Jongg is far more than just a game; it is a cherished social ritual. This perspective serves as the core design brief for the brand’s entire inventory. Every tile, rack, mat, and accessory is chosen specifically for players who deeply care about the quality of the time they spend gathered around the table.
The brand was established on the belief that American Mah Jongg deserves beautifully designed, high-quality gear. While plastic starter sets and generic racks served the market for decades, the modern player seeks products that reflect the seriousness and passion of their hobby. The Charleston Club bridges this gap by offering beautifully crafted, elevated essentials that honor the tradition and community of the game.

Owner Dolores Parrish on the Brand’s Values
The Charleston Club is built upon five core values: Connection, Craftsmanship, Integrity, Community, and Innovation and Style. These principles guide everything from product curation to the brand’s educational outreach.
At the heart of the brand is the belief that Mah Jongg is a powerful tool for connection, bringing together multi-generational players, weekly club groups, and tournament friends alike. Because the time spent together at the table is so valuable, the aesthetics and quality of the gear matter deeply.
Beyond offering premium products, the brand serves as a trusted resource for the Mah Jongg community. Through ongoing educational content, the company provides players with practical insights, strategic advice, and essential rules updates. Recent resources published by the brand include comprehensive guides on choosing between acrylic and wooden racks, mastering the strategic “Charleston Pass” for beginners, and a practical breakdown on how to read the 2026 National Mah Jongg League card. This focus on player education highlights the brand’s commitment to supporting the growth and enjoyment of the game alongside its product offerings.
Why the Name Charleston Club
The Charleston pass is the opening tile-exchange sequence in every American Mah Jongg game. Before the first hand begins, four players exchange tiles in three structured rounds (right, across, left) so each player can shape the hand she wants to play. The pass is the most distinctive structural feature of American Mah Jongg and arguably the most strategic moment in any game. The Charleston Club takes its name from that sequence.
The company’s products consistently reinforce the Charleston pass and the broader rituals of the American Mah Jongg game. The Mah Jongg Mat with Charleston Rules has the pass directions printed around the edge as a reminder for new players. The blog series Dolores Parrish runs covers Charleston pass strategy, joker and flower rules, and beginner’s questions about the opening sequence.

The Charleston Club is built for players who care about the game and want gear that matches the time they spend playing it. The company’s catalog is curated, not exhaustive. Every product is selected for quality and design. Orders ship in the company’s own packaging with handwritten notes available for gift purchases.
