This authentic tatami-beri has been explicitly used for centuries to bind, protect, and decorate the edges of traditional Japanese tatami mats. Due to loose threads on the reverse side, we recommend using only the finished front face. Pattern and color may vary slightly depending on the production lot, and monitor settings or room lighting may cause the ocean blue to appear differently than shown in photos.

The structural integrity of this woven edge tape eliminates the need for heavy interfacing in small pouches or bag making projects, making it the ideal trim for creating durable zip pouches, coin purses, and cardholders with crisp, professional finishes. Clean finishes are achieved effortlessly—the cut ends can be easily folded in, bound with bias tape, or carefully heat-sealed. Beyond pouches and wallets, this jacquard fabric trim shines in bookbinding applications, junk journal spines, and layered paper craft accents. For dollhouse miniatures and architectural models, it serves as the most authentic edge trim for 1:12 scale Japanese washitsu dioramas, bringing meticulous detail to every handmade creation.
