Traditional Japanese Tatami Mat (Bayswater W2)
Traditional Japanese tatami mat — woven igusa (rush grass) surface over a firm core, finished with black cloth heri edging stitched along both long sides. New this costs over 100GBP, I am giving it away from free because I need to clear the flat to move out. This is a proper full-thickness tatami, not a thin roll-up beach or yoga mat. It's rigid, it holds its shape, and it has that distinctive fresh rush-grass smell. Roughly 180cm × 90cm and about 3cm thick. Great as a meditation or zazen platform, a futon base, a dojo / stretching surface, or simply as a floor feature in a Japanese-styled room. CONDITION Used and in good order. Staining/discolouration through the centre from a sofa mat, and the middle has compressed slightly with use. No tears, burns or damage; edging fully intact. Rigid — does not fold. COLLECTION ONLY from W2 4QS (Queensway, London W2). It's rigid and does not roll or fold, so you'll need an estate car, a van, or a roof rack — it will not go in a hatchback boot upright.
