Which Colour Scheme Calls to You?

Daruma dolls are Japanese wish dolls – small figures that bring you the luck you need to achieve your goals.

Traditionally, a daruma doll has one eye coloured in when a goal is set, and the other coloured in once that goal has been achieved.

Often a feature of New Year celebrations, people will set themselves a goal at the start of the new year. At the end of the year, once that goal has been achieved, the daruma dolls are sometimes burnt during a daruma kuyo ceremony. Though you will also find those that collect their daruma dolls as reminders of their achievements, as well as good omens for their new doll.

On daruma dolls, you will find very dramatic eyebrows and whiskers. For some daruma dolls, these are to represent a crane and a turtle, and on others they can represent a dragon and a phoenix.
