This tatami edge tape is exactly what artisans seeking authentic, structural materials for their handmade projects have been missing. Woven in Kojima, Kurashiki—a Japanese city globally renowned for premium textiles—this specialized jacquard ribbon carries centuries of cultural heritage into your modern studio practice. Unlike flimsy standard trims, this stiff trim maintains its shape and professional finish through every creative application.
• Authentic Japan-made ribbon woven in Okayama Prefecture with a blend of polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyester for lasting durability
• Reversible marine pattern with standard thickness; size is approximately 8cm wide by 10m long
• Long woven edges finished without fraying; cut ends can be easily folded, bound, or heat-sealed for clean results
• Do not iron or wash; protect from high temperatures, moisture, and UV rays to prevent shrinkage or color transfer
Originally developed to bind and protect the edges of traditional tatami mats, this material has been reimagined for contemporary crafting. Each roll is a genuine piece of Japanese history, and slight variations in pattern and color across lots reflect the authentic nature of this specialized textile.
