Made for crafters seeking authentic materials with structural integrity, this tatami edge tape adds distinctive Japanese heritage and natural stiffness to bag making projects, pouches, bookbinding, and textile accents. Woven in Kojima, Kurashiki—Japan's premier textile town—this specialized jacquard ribbon brings centuries of traditional tatami craftsmanship into modern creative work, delivering the exceptional durability and clean finishes that distinguish genuine stiff fabric trim from standard ribbons.

• Width: approximately 8 cm; length: approximately 10 m per roll
• Material: approximately 42% polyethylene, 1% polypropylene, 57% polyester; thick, naturally stiff construction
• Finished woven edges resist fraying; cut ends fold, bind, or heat-seal cleanly
• Do not iron, wash, or expose to high heat, moisture, or direct UV light
• Made in Japan (Okayama Prefecture)

Due to its specialized traditional fiber blend and artisanal weaving, color and pattern may vary slightly between production lots. The reverse side contains loose threads and is not recommended for visible applications. While product photography is color-matched as closely as possible, monitor settings and room lighting may affect how the shade appears in your space.

This tatami border trim is crafted by skilled artisans on looms in our own factory in Kojima, a city globally renowned for premium textile manufacturing. The versatility of this decorative edge tape spans countless disciplines: use it for bag accent straps and structured bag bases in tote or crossbody designs; create durable, crisp-edged zip pouches and coin purses; bind junk journal spines or layer it across textured book covers; even build authentic 1:12 scale Japanese washitsu dioramas and architectural models. The natural support and clean edges often eliminate the need for heavy interfacing in smaller projects, making this stiff fabric trim an ideal choice for anyone seeking both aesthetic appeal and functional durability in their handmade creations.
