Ojami Cushion

The Ojami cushion is a traditional Japanese cushion that is typically used for sitting or for lumbar support. It is characterized by its round shape and is usually filled with buckwheat husks or other natural materials.

The Ojami cushion is known for its comfort and ability to conform to the body's shape, making it popular for meditation, floor seating, or simply as a decorative item in Japanese households. Its design and materials reflect the Japanese aesthetic of simplicity, functionality, and natural beauty.

A unique, one-of-a-kind, original creation by Takaokaya over the last decade,  the Ojami Cushion is the brainchild of Takaokaya’s 3rd generation CEO, Koichiro Takaoka.

Mr. Takaoka has always found it a little uncomfortable when sitting on the floor. The pursue of the art of relaxation and creating kutsurogi products has been his personal life’s mission so he wanted to revolutionise the experience of sitting down by creating a cushion that everyone can “sit comfortably by raising our bottom”.

Inspired by the ancient Japanese beanbag toy called otedama (or ojami in the Kyoto dialect) and coupled with his many years of knowledge gained from creating kutsurogi products and making cushions,  the Ojami Cushion which offers unsurpassed comfort, finally came to fruition.

Whether you want to use it for sitting on the floor or as a backrest on the sofa, we assure you that it will be a comfortable and relaxing experience with our Ojami Cushions, that will put a smile on your face.
