Why Choose a Tatami Mat?
A tatami mat offers a natural sleeping surface with firm, breathable support, perfect for floor mattresses or a Japanese futon mattress. Crafted from sustainable, biodegradable materials, it’s an eco-friendly choice for your home. Highly versatile, it can be used for sleeping, lounging, yoga, or meditation. The woven rush grass also releases a subtle, calming scent that freshens your space and helps improve air quality.
Does a Tatami Mat Have a Scent?
Yes. Our tatami mats are made from natural Igusa (rush grass), which can have a noticeable grassy or earthy aroma when first unboxed. This scent is a natural trait of authentic tatami and is not a defect. It is typically strongest right after unpacking and will usually fade within a few days to several weeks, depending on ventilation and humidity. Many people find the fragrance pleasant and calming, but those who are more sensitive to natural scents may prefer to air the mats in a well-ventilated space before use.
A Must-Have for Japanese Home Aesthetics
Tatami bring a touch of Japanese culture to any home. Whether you're creating a traditional tatami room or exploring eco-friendly living, these mats are a beautiful, practical addition.
Transform your home into a sanctuary with the timeless charm of tatami mats. Ideal for anyone who values tradition, simplicity, and modern living.
