Made for crafters seeking authentic Japanese materials with structural integrity, this tatami edge tape brings heritage textile craftsmanship into modern bag making, bookbinding, and decorative projects. This specialized jacquard trim, woven in Kojima, Kurashiki—a city globally renowned for premium textile manufacturing—offers the stiff, durable support that flimsy ribbons simply cannot provide, making it the ideal choice for anyone working with pouches, wallets, or textured book covers that demand professional, long-lasting results.

• Width: 8cm; Length: 10m (full roll) or cut by the half yard (0.45m)
• Material: Approximately 53% polyethylene, 1% polypropylene, 46% polyester blend
• Thickness: Thick and stiff with excellent natural support; holds shape without heavy interfacing
• Features: Long woven edges that resist fraying; cut ends can be folded, bound with bias tape, or heat-sealed for clean finished edges
• Care: Do not iron or machine wash; avoid high temperatures, moisture, and direct UV rays to prevent shrinkage or color transfer

For centuries, tatami-beri has been used to bind, protect, and decorate the edges of traditional Japanese tatami mats. This authentic Japanese heritage material is now reimagined for your creative studio. Please note that due to loose threads on the reverse side, we recommend using only the front face of the trim. Color and pattern may vary slightly depending on the manufacturing lot and your monitor settings.
