Item Details – Futon Mattress (Shikifuton)
2. Foldable Rush Grass Tatami Mats – Set of Two
Size of each mat: 210 × 100 cm (82.7 × 39.4 in)
Queen-size tatami mats cannot be shipped internationally, so this set includes two Single Long-size foldable tatami mats instead.
The tatami mats are designed to be placed underneath a Futon Mattress (Shikifuton), creating a simple Japanese-style sleeping space.
The surface is made from natural igusa rush grass, traditionally used for tatami in Japan. Igusa helps absorb and release moisture, making it useful underneath a futon where humidity can collect.
After putting away your futon, the tatami mats can also be used as a comfortable floor space for relaxing or for children to play on.
Depending on availability, you may receive either three-fold or five-fold versions.

Silk-Free Option
Silk thread is normally used for the corner tassels and tufting ties because it is strong and resists unraveling.
If you prefer not to use silk, select the Silk-Free option. We will use cotton thread instead.
Please note that cotton thread may loosen or unravel more easily than silk, and the thread color may vary from the product images. This does not affect the function of the futon.
For more details, please see our guide to the Silk-Free option.
