The Lotus Hand-Block Print meditation cushion collection is crafted from traditional hand-block print fabrics in India, and blends traditional textile craft with contemporary design. Our hand-block print fabrics are 8 oz., 100% cotton and colored with Azo-free dyes. Block printing is an ancient textile tradition that originated in India many centuries ago. It involves stamping designs onto fabric by hand using intricately carved wooden blocks. Hand-block printing is a painstaking, labor-intensive process requiring a high level of skill.

A zabuton (pron. zah'-boo-tawn) is the foundation cushion for your zafu (round sitting cushion) or meditation bench. It provides essential cushioning for your ankles and knees when sitting cross-legged on a zafu or on a meditation bench. Years of Zen Center living have gone into the design of this mat.
No need to replace the entire zabuton if the cover becomes soiled. All zippered zabuton covers are washable and new covers may be ordered.
