Japanese Shikifutons

For centuries the Japanese have made beds in a unique way to fit a simple yet elegant lifestyle.

Futons covered in exquisite fabrics. Futons filled with pure and simple cotton. Futons that offer comfort at night and compact storage during the day.

We have reproduced small quantities of this quintessential Japanese futon mattress and can now proudly offer the J-Life Traditional Japanese Shikifuton in four distinctive limited edition 100% cotton fabrics from Japan. Each is hand made using vintage equipment found nowhere else in the United States.
