The most famous piece of Japanese furniture is probably the futon, that stalwart of bedsits and student accommodation. However, have you ever heard of a kotatsu? No, we hadn’t either.
Kotatsu sets consist of three parts; a table fitted with an adjustable electric heater, a mat and a blanket similar to a duvet. They look so comfy & cosy, we can’t believe they’re not more popular here in the UK. Just imagine hunkering down under there, on a winter’s evening, watching a box set and enjoying a mug of hot chocolate with a plate of cookies.
- Kotatsu low table futon set: £142.87
- Reversible kotatsu quilt: £145.92 + Kotatsu heated table, 75x75cm: £219.02
- Kotatsu futon, mat & table 3-piece set 185x185cm 70x70cm: £556.11
