The Features of Enshu Tsumugi Fabric

Yarn-dyed for producing high-quality fabric, the threads are lightly stiffened with starch to prevent fluffing during weaving. The fabric is then sun-dried to preserve its natural texture and feel.

A dobby loom is used to carefully control the weaving process, allowing for precise and delicate patterns. With highly refined techniques inherited since its establishment, Enshu Tsumugi has been used in a wide range of applications, from everyday clothing to industrial materials.

When it arrives in your home, it brings a soft, natural comfort that enhances everyday living.

Filling

The filling is 100% organic cotton.

Our craftspeople layer and shape the cotton by hand, distributing it carefully so the Zabuton is evenly filled and supported through the center and edges.

The cotton has a firm, supportive fiber that works well for traditional Japanese cushions. It feels soft and full when new, then gradually settles and becomes denser with use.

No wool, polyester, flame retardants, pesticides, or adhesives are added to the filling.

About Flat Dimensions

The listed dimensions are measured from seam to seam while the Zabuton is lying flat and unfilled.

Once the cotton filling is added, the Zabuton gains volume, so the finished length and width become smaller than the listed flat dimensions.

When new, the Zabuton is approximately 5–10 cm (2.0–3.9 in) thick. With use, the cotton gradually settles to around 3–5 cm (1.2–2.0 in).

Finished size and thickness may vary slightly depending on the amount of filling, temperature, humidity, and use.

Craftsmanship: How We Make a Zabuton

Each Zabuton is made by hand using traditional Japanese futon-making techniques.

  • Layers of cotton are arranged by hand to create an even foundation.
  • The cotton is shaped and distributed carefully so that the filling reaches the edges while providing support at the center.
  • Each corner is filled and shaped by hand to form the final shape of the cushion.
  • After the cotton is inserted, the opening is sewn closed by hand with a blind stitch.

The shape and balance of each Zabuton are adjusted by hand as it is finished.

Care for 100% Cotton Filling

• Do not wash with water at home.
• Air regularly in a dry, well-ventilated place.
• On clear, dry days, air the item outdoors to help release moisture from the cotton filling.
• If outdoor airing is not possible, place it in a well-ventilated room and use a fan or dehumidifier if needed.
• If the outer fabric becomes dirty, gently spot clean the affected area and allow it to dry completely.
• Store only when completely dry, in a well-ventilated place.
• Cotton naturally settles and becomes firmer with use. This is a normal characteristic of cotton-filled bedding.
