Customize the look and firmness of your J-Life Buckwheat Hull Pillow, or Soba Gara Makura, with our Japanese pillow covers and loose buckwheat hull (available by the pound).
Our handmade buckwheat pillow covers allow you to easily transfer the buckwheat pillow filling from an existing pillow cover into a different one, so you can refresh the look of your Japanese bedding, or replace a damaged/ worn pillowcase.
This zabuton cover features a playful bunny pattern with sakura flower detail printed on olive green fabric. Visit our blog to learn more about rabbits in Japanese culture.
Traditional Japanese Comfort
Faithful to Japanese tradition, your sobakawa pillow case is composed of:
An outer sheath that functions like a pillowcase and is available in White Ultra Sateen or in the same matching fabric as the outer case. In Japan, the color white is considered sacred and is associated with purity, humility, and cleanliness. It holds great significance in the Shinto religion.
An outer case made with 100% cotton imported traditional Japanese fabric.
Sizes
Our buckwheat pillows are available in two styles: the buckwheat neckroll pillow and the rectangular buckwheat pillow (each sold separately).
