Seat cover is packed with a pillow like a silk cushion used to be in Japanese bachimakura box pillows.

Ornament is just a hint of remaining pattern below layers of wood ash.

Note tells how to use pillow in hot Finnish sauna : Heat the pillow in the bench while you heat the sauna. Duck in chill water before use. Enjoy relaxing warmth in neck and shoulders.

Patterns comes from Asian ornaments, printed with iron oxide and layers of different kaolin slips.

Only ends are glazed with Celadon to keep rough clay take flame marks.

My inspiration came from this shape of Japanese makura.
