Amaterasu Blossom Round Rug - Okami Chair Mat

Amaterasu stands calm and alert at the center of this Okami round rug, her white fur streaked with crimson markings and her flaming reflector blazing at her shoulder. Behind her a gold sun rises over drifting clouds and a cherry tree in full bloom. Everything is laid out for the circle: a scalloped frame holds the wolf, a dark floral field wraps around it, and a cream border closes the edge.

A circle does something a rectangle can't in a room full of corners. It softens the lines, gives a desk chair a defined place to sit, and marks a spot beside a bed or in front of an armchair. Here the wolf sits dead center, so the rug looks right from whichever side you walk in.

The Design: Ink, Blossom and Flame

The art borrows from sumi-e brushwork and old woodblock prints, and you can see it in the palette. Aged-paper cream fills the middle, charcoal green darkens the field around it, and touches of vermilion and antique gold pull your eye straight back to the wolf. Pink cherry blossoms cluster on both sides of the frame, while curling blue-gray waves rise at her feet. If this wolf is your favorite, the rest of our Okami rugs are worth a look too.

Deep red peonies and cream chrysanthemums alternate around the dark field, with four gold discs marking north, south, east and west like small suns. The outer border is a slow vine of red blossoms on parchment. Nothing feels crowded. Each ring has room to breathe, and that is what keeps such a busy design readable from across the room.

Amaterasu on the Floor

The round cut follows the artwork's own outline, so the border is never chopped off. The soft plush low-pile surface feels gentle underfoot and keeps the fine linework crisp. A non-slip rubber backing grips hard floors like wood, tile and laminate. This rug is machine washable, and a gentle cold cycle followed by an air-dry keeps it fresh. Dye-sublimation printing sets the colors into the fibers, so that vermilion stays bold.

Under a desk it works as a chair mat with its own little scene to look down on. It also makes a natural gaming room rug, and the same circle sits just as well at the foot of a bed. At the largest sizes it becomes a round area rug for a seating area. The smaller sizes work as an accent rug beside a nightstand.

Sizes & Rug Level

Six diameters are available, from 80 cm (31.5″) to 180 cm (70.9″): 80, 100, 120, 140, 160 and 180 cm. Stay with 80 to 100 cm under a desk chair or beside a bed. Choose 120 to 140 cm for a reading nook or a game corner where the wolf and her blossoms deserve a closer look. Go up to 160 to 180 cm to anchor a seating area, where the border can frame the whole room.

Two levels are offered. Standart Level is solid everyday quality. Premium Level adds a thicker, plusher pile and a more durable backing.

Quick Questions

Is it machine washable?

Yes. Use a gentle cold cycle and air-dry it, and the printed colors stay put.

Does it slip on hard floors?

No. The rubber backing grips wood, tile and laminate, so Amaterasu stays planted exactly where you put her.

Can I put it over carpet?

Yes, it lies flat over low-pile carpet, so the circle keeps its clean outline.

Which size should I choose?

Pick 100 cm for a desk, 140 cm for a nook, or 180 cm to make the border a centerpiece. The wolf is centered, so any size shows her clearly.
