Made for bag makers, bookbinders, and craft enthusiasts seeking authentic structural materials, this tatami edge tape brings Japanese heritage into your studio. This heavyweight jacquard trim is a specialized woven ribbon with remarkable durability and cultural storytelling—not your average decorative tape trim.

• Width: 8cm; Length: 10m roll (or order by the half yard for custom lengths)
• Material: Approximately 73% polyethylene, 26% polypropylene, 1% polyester; medium thickness with natural stiffness
• Features: Usable on both sides; finished woven edges that won't fray; holds its shape without heavy interfacing
• Origin: Handcrafted in Kojima, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, Japan—a global center for premium textile manufacturing
• Care: Do not iron or wash; protect from high temperatures, moisture, and UV rays to prevent shrinkage or fading

For centuries, tatami-beri has been used to bind, protect, and decorate the edges of traditional Japanese tatami mats. By incorporating this authentic material into your handmade goods, you're weaving genuine Japanese history and cultural artistry into your projects. The stiff fabric trim provides excellent natural support and delivers clean, professional finishes—the long woven edges are perfectly finished, and cut ends can be easily folded in, bound with bias tape, or carefully heat-sealed.

Ordering & Cutting Guide

By the Half Yard (0.45m): Multiple quantities will be cut and shipped as one continuous piece (e.g., Qty 2 = 1 Yard / 0.9m; Qty 3 = 1.5 Yards / 1.35m).

Full Roll - 30% OFF (11 Yards / 10m): Sent as a complete, original roll. Select this option to instantly save 30% compared to the standard cut length price.

Perfect for bag making projects, this durable woven tape is the ultimate sturdy accent for tote straps, crossbody bands, decorative gussets, and structured bag bases. In bookbinding and journaling, it creates stunning textured book covers, junk journal spines, and unique layered accents for paper crafting. Pouches, wallets, and dollhouse miniatures also benefit from its ideal width and stiffness—zip pouches and coin purses maintain a crisp, professional shape, while 1:12 scale Japanese washitsu dioramas and architectural models gain authenticity. Pattern and color may vary slightly depending on the lot, so each piece is truly one-of-a-kind.
