Meditation Cushions Zafu & Zabuton Cherry Blossoms

The zafu is covered with sturdy black cotton canvas, and filled with either organic buckwheat hulls or natural kapok fiber (your choice.) The zafu is designed with a velcro closure so that the amount of filling can be adjusted, and a sewn-in handle for ease of transport. It has triple-sewn seams for durability, and measures 15" by 6". The cover is washable with care (remove the stuffing first!!)

The zabuton features a machine-pieced patchwork quilt on top, and my camera just can't do justice to these beautiful fabrics. The center panel features a Japanese landscape, with a tall castle-like building, surrounded by cherry blssoms in various shades of pink. Graceful cranes wing their way across the scene. At the top, you can see the golden moon peeping out from between the dark clouds, and at the bottom left is a grouping of mugo pines. The panel is framed in a matching print of mugo pines, with an outer border of solid black. The exquisite detail of this fabric has to be seen; it's just amazing.

The bottom side of the zabuton cover is the same black canvas as the zafu. The zabuton cover also has a velcro closure, so that the cover can be removed for laundering. All fabrics have been prewashed, so you can gently launder your cover as needed without concerns about shrinkage. The cotton batting inside is enclosed in a separate muslin liner. The zabuton measures about 28 inches square, with a 3-inch loft.

I've been making and selling these meditation sets for years, and I've sold hundreds of them to satisfied eBay buyers, many of them repeat customers. I've provided my handmade cushions to Zen centers around the U.S. as well as to individual practitioners in local zendos. I'm a one-woman operation, so every single cushion is handmade by me. Every aspect of your purchase receives my personal attention. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have about materials, construction, etc. Making these cushions is a part of my own practice; it constitutes a combination of skillful means and right livelihood, so I'm absolutely committed to your satisfaction. No sale is final until you are happy with your purchase. If for any reason you are not pleased with your cushions, I will cheerfully exchange them or refund your money. Your package is my responsibility until it is safely in your hands. I do lots of custom work, and any zafu and/or zabuton I make can be customized to your specifications. I offer extra-large sets, crescent-shaped zafus, kapok stuffing, and several colors and fabrics. Please look at my zafu-buying guide, Zen and the Art of Choosing Meditation Cushions, if you have general questions about meditation cushions. If your question isn't answered there, feel free to email me. The only silly question is the one you don't ask.
