Japanese -style rooms are most filled with Tatami, a woven soft rush mat that was originally used as a luxury item for the nobility, and now has transcended to a time where everyone can share this comfortable floor mat.

Even though foreigners and the current generations people have gotten used to hard flooring, the appearance, feel, and even smell of Tatami is still something special. Tatami is also widely used in historical temples because the soothing and elegant texture can put you in relaxation. This means the material can also be suitable for book covers.

The craftsman is Matsuya, a tatami maker from Gumma Prefecture, providing you the base slip-on book covers that will keep your reading material looking sophisticated.

Matsuya offers different kinds of designs, such as goldfish, cherry blossoms, or a classy accent of Mt. Fuji.

If you aren’t a book reader, no worries. Matsuya also offers tatami business card holders, enough to showcase your good sense of personality to customers. The unique design also passes on a strong existence of yourself, making people unintentionally want to remember you.

The complete set of Tatami book covers can be found here, and card holders here. With a small affordable price, you are able to remove your irritating thoughts and enjoy your reading.
