New Arrival - Sashiko Cushion Covers
We’re pleased to announce the launch our latest homeware collection item, Sashiko cushion covers by Link Collective.
What is Sashiko?
Sashiko is a traditional Japanese embroidery technique that originated in the Tohoku region of northern Japan.
It was originally developed as a way to reinforce and insulate fabric, and is characterized by its geometric stitching patterns.
Today, Sashiko has transcended its utilitarian roots and is celebrated around the world for its graphic beauty, subtle texture, and cultural depth.
Tradition Meets Contemporary Design
These cushion covers are made from 100% cotton and feature timeless sashiko motifs that blend beautifully into modern interiors, while staying true to the philosophy of Mingei (民藝), the Japanese folk craft movement.
The fabric is produced by Kenichi Ohazama, a textile craftsman who trained under Yoshitaka Yanagi, the nephew of Muneyoshi Yanagi, founder of the Mingei movement.
Mr. Ohazama continues to preserve and evolve this tradition through a thoughtful process that involves weaving, dyeing, and finishing all carried out with deep craftsmanship and care.

Red on Navy : A bold and modern color combination exclusive to Link Collective.
White : A refined and serene piece with beautiful contrasts in light and shadow.

All covers are made from 100% cotton, sized at 45×45 cm, and fit most standard cushion inserts (insert not included).
We hope you’ll enjoy welcoming these pieces of quiet craftsmanship into your home.
