Japanese Traditional Daruma Doll for Good Fortune

A traditional good luck charm from Japan, the "Daruma" doll is a powerful symbol for making wishes and achieving goals. The most unique feature of this Daruma is its blank eyes. When you set a new goal or make a wish (for the new year, a project, etc.), you make your intention clear and paint in the Daruma's left eye. Place it somewhere visible—like your desk, entryway, or office—where it will serve as a constant motivator to work towards your dream. When your wish comes true or the goal is achieved, you joyfully paint in the right eye to celebrate its fulfillment. With its round, red body painted with the golden Kanji character for "Fuku" (Good Fortune), this doll embodies the spirit of nana korobi ya oki—"fall down seven times, get up eight." It is the perfect companion for making your dreams a reality.
