Darumas

Japanese Daruma Dolls are based on Bodhidharma, the founder of the Zen sect of Buddhism and are one of the most popular symbols of good luck in Japan. Daruma, also known as Dharma Dolls, are associated with a beloved Japanese proverb, 'nana korobi yaoki', which means, 'fall down seven times, get up eight', as the Daruma doll's rounded shape allows it to return to its original position, even if knocked over, representing such persistence! Japanese Daruma remind us all to never, ever give up on our goals in life and are a popular gift of encouragement, commonly used alongside goal setting! Learn more about Daruma Dolls.

Darumas, though typically red and depicting a bearded man (Dharma), vary greatly in colour and design depending on region and artist. Order your Japanese Daruma Doll online today and have it gift wrapped, Japanese style of course, completely free of charge!
