Authentic Japanese Rodatami for the Tea Ceremony
Our Rodatami (or Ro Tatami) is the definitive, specialised mat for creating an authentic tea ceremony space (Chashitsu) in your home across Australia. This unique mat features a precise cut-out for the Ro (sunken hearth), which is essential for the traditional winter tea ceremony ritual.
This mat is the cornerstone of the 4.5 mat Yojōhan layout, providing a dedicated place for the tea master to prepare and serve the tea. It delivers the highest Japanese quality foundation for this profound cultural practice.
Customisation and Quality Construction
We specialise in genuine Japanese products and high-quality traditional items, ensuring this mat is built for tradition and durability.
In-Stock Trim: The Rodatami is usually available immediately in our sleek, unpatterned black trim.
Custom Orders: Other decorative trims, including our popular brocade options, can be specifically ordered in our next shipment, allowing you to match the mat to your existing décor.
Custom Cuts: We can arrange for either side's corner to be cut, as well as providing a full mat's corner cut, offering flexibility for various tea ceremony school styles and room layouts.
Foundation: The 5cm thick tatami core provides the natural aroma, firm support, and excellent humidity regulation essential for this solemn and meditative practice.
