Description:
Simply lay this over-sheet to refresh your tatami room. Use it to refresh tatami that has faded due to sun exposure, or as a cover to protect new tatami from getting dirty. We use long, domestically grown (Kyushu-grown) igusa, over 120cm in length. Approximately 92cm of this length is utilized. This is a high-quality product made with long igusa, resulting in less white at the edges. (The white part is not due to sun damage; it is the color of the root and tip of the igusa.) Longer igusa is considered higher quality. Igusa has a reddish-brown tip, a white root, and a green middle section. The more of the good quality green middle section used, the more durable and beautiful the finish will be. Igusa will fade with use, but products using more of the green middle section will fade evenly and beautifully, developing a unique character. This product is finished with an Itobiki-ori weave, the same as tatami facing. Compared to Soume-ori weave, it is more durable due to a higher density of igusa. The smooth surface makes it resistant to dust accumulation. We recommend Itobiki-ori for those who want to use it for a long time or require durability. We use domestically grown (Kyushu-grown) igusa. Each strand of domestic igusa is thick, with a dense fiber and thick epidermis, providing elasticity and excellent durability. Igusa has air-purifying and humidity-regulating properties, and is resistant to dirt. The igusa has been treated with Aomori Hiba (antibacterial and deodorizing effects). Both sides can be used, making it economical.
