Authentic Japanese Kincha Zabuton for Zazen Meditation

A Zabuton (座布団) is a traditional Japanese floor cushion used beneath the body when sitting on tatami or hard flooring. For meditation, it is commonly placed underneath a Japanese Zafu meditation cushion to protect the knees, ankles and lower legs from direct contact with the floor.

Its generous 55 × 59 cm dimensions correspond to the traditional Japanese Meisen-ban (銘仙判) Zabuton format, providing a comfortable base for many seated meditation postures.

100% Cotton – Traditional Japanese Construction

This Japanese Kincha Zabuton features a 100% cotton outer fabric and 100% cotton filling. The natural cotton construction offers a comfortable, breathable and traditional feel suitable for regular meditation practice.

The Kincha (金茶) color is a traditional Japanese golden-brown tone with warm ochre nuances. Its refined and natural appearance integrates beautifully into Zen rooms, meditation spaces, Buddhist practice areas, temples and Japanese-style interiors.

Zabuton + Zafu: A Complete Zazen Meditation Setup

For traditional seated meditation, the Zabuton is ideally combined with a traditional Japanese Zafu meditation cushion .

What Is Kincha (金茶)?

Kincha (金茶) is a traditional Japanese color combining warm golden and brown tones. The name can be understood as “golden tea color,” and it creates a calm, earthy and refined atmosphere particularly suited to Japanese interiors, Zen spaces and Buddhist meditation environments.

What Is the Difference Between a Zafu and a Zabuton?

A Zafu is a thick meditation cushion used to elevate the pelvis and support an upright seated posture. A Zabuton is a wider and flatter Japanese floor cushion placed underneath the practitioner.

Using both cushions together creates a practical traditional setup for Zazen meditation: the Zafu supports the seated posture, while the Zabuton cushions the parts of the body that remain in contact with the floor.

For a complete setup, explore our collection of Japanese Zafu meditation cushions and combine your Zabuton with the Zafu size and color best suited to your meditation practice.
