This mattress cover sheet is handmade of igusa (rush grass), a material which historically has been used for making tatami mats. Thinly woven using igusa grown in Kyūshū – Japan’s southernmost main island – this cover is highly moisture absorbent, and has a relaxing, fresh fragrance. Treated with essential oils extracted from Aomori hiba wood – a species of cypress native to Japan – it has enhanced antibacterial and deodorising properties. By avoiding the standard mud-dyeing process employed to dry regular igusa, the rushes used in this mattress cover retain smooth, dirt-resistant and chemical-free surfaces.

Doesn’t require washing.
Keep dry to prevent mould from growing.
Avoid direct sunlight.
Due to the nature of the materials, the colour might change over time from green to light brown.
Pillow is not included with the cover sheet.

Size: L200 cm x W120 cm
