Japanese fabric cushion 'Kiruto'

The floor cushion printed in playful all-over motifs

Round and generously padded, this is a zabuton — the flat floor cushion Japanese homes set out for sitting at a low table, for meditation or for casual lounging. Its printed cover comes in a whole range of all-over motifs — watermelons, leaves, chevrons, scallops, triangles, little trees and folk patterns — so each option has its own distinct character.

The soft, generous padding makes it comfortable for extended floor sitting, while the round shape keeps it neat and easy to tuck away or stack. It works as a meditation seat, a yoga prop, casual extra seating for guests, or simply a decorative accent dropped on the floor or a bench.

In a traditional tatami room, or zashiki, the zabuton is the seat you settle onto in seiza at a low chabudai table — and the cushion politely set out for a guest before they take their place. This one keeps that everyday role while swapping the usual restraint for a bit of fun underfoot.

It comes in several colorways — navy, white, gray, black and rose grounds — each carrying its own mix of printed motifs, so you can match it to your room or pick a few for a relaxed, mismatched look. The lively prints suit a casual, characterful interior more than a strictly minimal one.

A round padded floor cushion in a choice of playful prints, it makes floor seating soft and inviting. A cushion for anyone who wants comfortable, characterful seating at floor level.

Light enough to move from room to room, it slips easily under a low table when not in use and pulls out the moment extra seating is needed. Because the prints are so varied, a few of them grouped together build a cheerful, collected-over-time look rather than a matched set, which suits a relaxed, lived-in home.
