In the Japanese Zen tradition a zafu (meditation cushion) or wooden meditation stool and a zabuton (flat mat) define a meditation space wherever they are laid out. Blue Banyan makes its zafus here in the UK, conforming to the classic design but ensuring by the quality of production and finishing we require that the meditation cushion gives excellent comfort and support during even lengthy meditation.
The sleeve of the zafu is made out of heavy-gauge 100% cotton fabric. It is filled with organic kapok.
Our zafu design features a hidden pleat to allow removal of the filling in the event of the cushion requiring to be washed. However, given the nature of its intended use a zafu can be easily cleaned and maintained in its pristine condition by occasionally brushing it down using a stiff brush dipped in lukewarm water. The zafu has an integral carrying handle and is easily portable (approx: 900g weight).
