The J-Life Shikifuton is a traditional Japanese floor mattress (shikibuton) made in the US to Japanese specifications. It was developed by deconstructing Japanese shikibutons and working with master shikifuton craftsmen in Japan. It has no foam, innersprings or wool.
The mattress has an unbleached cotton duck cover and is filled with American-grown cotton. Naturally derived boron is used as a fire retardant to meet US fire retardant standards. The sleep surface is firm.
A custom zippered removable cover fits the mattress snugly. It is handmade from cotton fabric imported from Japan, with a ditsy sakura floral print on golden yellow fabric.
