Description:
This is a tatami mat cover with water-repellent treatment applied to both sides of the rush grass fabric (however, it will not repel moisture at 40°C or higher, such as hot water, tea, or coffee). Simply laying this cover over your tatami room will refresh it. Use it to refresh tatami that has been discolored by sunlight, or as a cover to protect new tatami from getting dirty.
Unlike regular rush grass tatami covers that require dry wiping before use, this product has a water-repellent coating applied after the fabric has been mud-dyed, so there is no need for dry wiping. You can unfold the product upon arrival and use it immediately.
The water-repellent treatment is applied to both the front and back of the fabric, making it reversible and economical for double-sided use.
This product uses rush grass approximately 105-110cm in length, of which about 88cm is used. The edges may appear somewhat whitish. (This is not due to sun fading, but is the color of the root and tip ends of the rush grass.) Longer rush grass is considered higher quality. Rush grass has reddish-brown tips, white roots, and a green middle section. Using more of the high-quality green middle section results in a more durable and aesthetically pleasing finish. Rush grass has air-purifying and humidity-regulating properties, and is resistant to dirt.
"Hiba essence," extracted from Hiba trees in Aomori Prefecture, has been applied to the fabric surface using the manufacturer's unique technology. Hiba essence contains a highly antibacterial component called hinokitiol, which is a natural substance. (Compared to untreated products, it has antibacterial and deodorizing effects.)
*As this is a natural material and is processed by hand by artisans, there may be variations in shape and slight differences from the stated size.
*Due to the water-repellent treatment process, the rush grass fabric may have a slight reddish tint. We appreciate your understanding in advance.
