Spring Lookbook

For many, this season brings the ritual or spring cleaning—decluttering spaces, deep cleaning homes, and preparing gardens for the warmth ahead. The air hums with the sound of pollinators, and nature reminds us that growth is always in motion. Just as we embrace renewal in our surroundings, choosing Japanese bedding inspired by nature allows us to create a tranquil and harmonious space that aligns with the changing season.

We have curated a Spring Lookbook to celebrate this time of renewal through fabrics that embody the beauty of the season. Our featured designs, Ume Plum Blossom, Mizu White, Ajisai Pink Hydrangeas, and Katsumushi Dragonfly—each capturing spring’s essence and its symbolism in Japanese culture, offering a connection to nature’s ever-changing rhythm.

Japanese Shikifutons

For centuries, the Japanese have embraced a way of sleeping that reflects a life lived with intention: simple, elegant, and deeply connected to nature.

Our J-Life Traditional Japanese Shikifutons are handcrafted in small batches, using vintage equipment found nowhere else in the United States.

Every futon is generously filled with pure cotton produced at our own facility, and paired with covers we handcraft ourselves using distinctive, 100% cotton fabrics imported from Japan. Each piece is a true celebration of craftsmanship, comfort, and mindful living.
