The Daruma is a traditional Japanese symbol of perseverance and good luck.

Inspired by the Buddhist monk Bodhidharma, it represents resilience and determination – no matter how many times you fall, you always get back up (nanakorobi yaoki – “fall down seven times, get up eight”).

A small yet meaningful piece of Japanese folk art – perfect as a lucky charm or inspiring decorative accent. See less
