Unlike flimsy satin, grosgrain, or standard cotton ribbons, this tatami edge tape stays true to its heritage as a stiff fabric trim with remarkable structural integrity. Woven in Kojima, Kurashiki—a Japanese city globally renowned for premium textile manufacturing—this authentic shippo jacquard incorporates a traditional Japanese pattern where endlessly linked circles symbolize wishes for harmony, balance, and good fortune. The pop color scheme of yellow and light blue makes this decorative tape both functionally durable and visually striking for your creative projects.

• Width: approximately 8cm / Length: approximately 10m per standard cut
• Material: approximately 47% polyethylene, 22% polypropylene, 31% polyester blend
• Medium weight with excellent natural support; holds its shape without heavy interfacing
• Woven edges finish cleanly and will not fray; cut ends can be folded, bound, or heat-sealed
• Do not iron or machine wash; protect from high temperatures, moisture, and UV rays

Please note that due to the characteristics of this traditional trim, the pattern and color may vary slightly depending on the production lot. The product features a jacquard weave construction that can be used on both sides, offering maximum versatility for your designs. While we strive to display photos as close to actual color as possible, your monitor settings and room lighting may cause slight variations in appearance.

This specialized structured fabric has been explicitly used for centuries to bind, protect, and decorate the edges of traditional Japanese tatami mats. Today, crafters bring this material into their studios for authentic heritage and cultural storytelling. Bag makers prize this stiff ribbon for tote bag straps, crossbody bands, and decorative gussets that maintain crisp, professional shape. Bookbinding trim enthusiasts use it to create stunning textured book covers and junk journal spines. The ideal width and stiffness also make it perfect for sewing durable zip pouches, coin purses, and cardholders.
