A Daruma is a traditional Japanese wishing doll that helps us to achieve our dreams and aspirations.

Here’s how it works: First, think of something special you wish to achieve. Next, draw or paint one of your Daruma doll’s blank eyes. Place Daruma someplace visible, so that while he focuses on your objective, you’ll be reminded to do the same. Once your goal is realized, signify your accomplishment by drawing Daruma’s other eye. Congratulations!

A gold Daruma doll symbolizes wealth and prosperity. A gold Daruma is a superb motivational tool for business owners and those starting new ventures to stay focused on business objectives and targets. A gold Daruma can also be used as a fun and fitting way to kick off a funding drive, or to raise money for charity.

For each Classic Daruma Doll sold, Unique Japan will proudly donate one dollar ($1USD) to the Children’s HeartLink. The Children’s HeartLink is a non-profit organization that helps enhance existing pediatric cardiac programs to support life-saving treatments for needy children.

Daruma is closely associated with a beloved Japanese proverb, nana korobi yaoki, which states, “Fall down seven times, get up eight”. The Daruma doll’s unique rounded shape allows it to return to its original position even if knocked over, representing such persistence. Daruma reminds us all to never give up on our dreams.
