Description

☀️☀️ Look at the listing photo for "Current Design" to see the current fabric combination available!

A “zafu” is a round cushion, often used in Japanese and Chinese meditation.

This plush friend is inspired by the ocean sunfish, or Mola mola, and is made of repurposed materials. Additionally, a portion of proceeds is donated to Mental Health America, a community-based nonprofit dedicated to addressing the needs of those living with mental illness and promoting the overall mental health of all.

Sunfish Zafu is approximately:
• 27" long (including fin-span)
• 16–18" wide (depending on its squishiness)
• 3–4.5" tall (will squish up or down if you sit on it or fluff it back up)

Please note that all plushies are handmade, so there are slight variations between each one.

The plush toys are made from:
• REPURPOSED exterior fabric: Reused from secondhand curtains, dresses, and other recycled or reclaimed textiles
• REPURPOSED interior stuffing: ~95% fabric remnants, repurposed from the leftovers of fabrics I use to make my other plush friends (hooray sustainability!)
• A wee bit of recycled polyester filling, in the fins
• Sewing and embroidery thread

Due to their repurposed nature, no two sunfish friends are alike, and their fabric patterns and colors are only available in small, limited quantities.

These plushies should be safe for everyone of all ages, but should also probably be careful around children under 4 years old, as kids are known to be mischievous critters :3

☀️☀️ NOTE ☀️☀️
Sunfish Zafu is the heaviest plush friend I’ve got! The lowest shipping cost is with USPS Priority Mail. If you are crafty with hand-sewing, I also have just the “shell” of this Mola mola cushion available (you’ll have to be able to sew it closed yourself). So if you're interested in stuffing a Sunfish Zafu with your own repurposed fabrics and remnants, please take a look in my shop for that listing!
