A larger version of the little Daruma dolls Ross often gives to new patients in clinic, this 12cm Daruma offers the same thoughtful way to set an intention and keep it in sight. We’ve loved sharing them so much that we wanted to make them available to everyone, whether for yourself or as a gift for a friend or family member.
This gold 12cm Japanese Daruma doll is made from papier-mâché by Daimonya in Takasaki, Japan. A thoughtful gift to mark a wish, a goal or a new beginning.
How to use your Daruma
Traditionally, you begin by painting the left eye (on your right as you look at it) when you set a goal, adding the other eye once it is achieved. As you paint the first eye with a brush or marker pen, take a moment to focus on your intention or desire.
Keep your Daruma somewhere you’ll see it regularly, as a gentle reminder of what you’re working towards.
