Pagong has been hand-dyeing kimono fabric in Kyoto's much loved Yuzen-dye tradition for nearly a century. In 2002 Pagong launched it's own brand of contemporary everyday fashion clothing. Takaokaya collaborated with Pagong to create a Kyoto-style Yuzen dye cushion collection featuring motifs from Pagong's historic catalog of designs. The bold and colorful motifs are dyed on heavy, natural 'asa-men' linen hemp-cotton blend fabric. These cushions are pleasurable both to the eye and touch.

About Takaokaya

Takaokaya has been producing handcrafted futon bedding and zabuton cushions in the ancient imperial capital of Kyoto since 1919. The company is thought to be the only one left that still makes it’s products by hand in Kyoto. Takaokaya prestigiously sells its products at all department stores in Japan.

About Ojami and Settee Cushions

Takaokaya developed the Ojami cushion for the new millennium. The unique shape is based on a traditional azuki bean filled Japanese ‘tedama’ beanbag toy, called ‘ojami’ in Kyoto dialect. The Settee cushion is a larger, more luxurious version of the Ojami. Try Ojami as a throw pillow on the sofa and Settee for comfortably sitting on the floor.

Care and Cleaning of Ojami and Settee Cushions

Ojami and Settee are traditional Japanese zabuton cushions which means that the cover cannot be removed for washing. If soiled, gently wipe with a damp cloth. In Japan a dry-cleaner that cleans kimono can often dry-clean zabuton. However, Takaokaya recommends overseas customers take extra care not to dirty their zabuton to avoid cleaning issues. Takaokaya says that most soiling is caused by food or drink.
