Collection: Bino Size Calligraphy Felt Mat

Choose the Largest Calligraphy Mat Possible

A calligraphy mat is placed beneath hanshi or gasen paper when writing.
There are several standard sizes, and the mat is usually chosen according to the size of the paper used.
For example, a Bino-ban mat measures approximately 28 × 38 cm.
However, if there is no space for placing a copy model or reference sheet, writing can become inconvenient, so choosing the largest mat possible is recommended.

Felt and Lasha Materials

Calligraphy mats are generally available in two main materials, each with its own characteristics.
Please choose according to your preferred thickness and texture.
Felt mats offer a luxurious and voluminous feel.
They are made by compressing animal hair fibers, making them soft and highly water-repellent.
Lasha mats are more affordable than felt and are made from woven fabric that is durable and resistant to wrinkling.
They can be folded for easy transport and are washable, making them practical for everyday use.
