Darpan Pink Meditation Zafu

The print of the Rose Darpan Zafu meditation cushion is inspired by the amazing Hall of Mirrors at Amber Fort in Jaipur, which reflects light. In India, a darpan, mirror, means reflection and faithful representation. The Rose Darpan zafu is screen printed in a soft pink by master craftsmen in India. It is finished with mud piping and adorned with a tassel like those seen on the camels of the great Thar Desert in Rajasthan. The cover and lining are 100% cotton and are filled with spelled hulls. So beautiful that your practice will be inspired by it.

the making
Screen printing, one of the first textile techniques to create precise images on fabric, is a multi-step process that requires skill and patience. The fabric is stretched flat and then covered with a pattern blocking stencil. A handmade screen is placed over the fabric and stencil. Ink is applied, then a blade is moved across the screen, pushing the ink through to imprint the design onto the fabric. Often, as with chattra screen printing, two master printers move the blade over the fabric; the action is meditative and rhythmic. The fabric is then heated to adhere the ink to the fabric, then it is washed and pressed before being cut and sewn.
