Tatami Mats

Sep 11, 2004 0 Replies

I have 8 tsubo [mats] in my bedroom. At least 10 years old. They should be recovered but I can find no one here in Hawaii with the necessary skills/equipment/interest.



The straw is in great shape, just faded.



They can, of course, be replaced at considerable expense.



Does anyone know if I might "restore" the straw with an application of linseed oil or other substance?



Thanks for any direction.
