Description:Simply lay this mat to refresh your tatami room. Use it to refresh sun-faded tatami or as a cover to protect new tatami from getting dirty. It is a free-cut type that can be easily cut to fit the shape of your room. It has urethane lining on the back for moderate cushioning. It uses domestic (Kyushu-produced) igusa with lengths of 110-115cm. Approximately 95cm of this length is used. The edges will have a somewhat whitish appearance. (The white part is not due to sun fading; it is the color from the root and tip of the igusa.) Longer igusa is of higher quality. Igusa is reddish-brown at the tip, white at the root, and blue (green) in the middle. Using more of the good quality blue part in the middle results in a more durable and beautiful finish. Also, as igusa ages and fades from sunlight, mats made with more of the blue middle part will fade evenly and beautifully, developing a unique character. It uses domestic (Kyushu-produced) igusa. Domestic igusa is thick, has a dense fiber structure with a thick epidermis, making it elastic and highly durable. Igusa has the properties of purifying air, regulating humidity, and being resistant to dirt. The igusa has been treated with Aomori Hiba (for antibacterial and deodorizing effects).
