The Daruma doll (達磨) is a ceramic Japanese lucky charm, often associated with perseverance, good luck, and the fulfilment of goals. Daruma dolls are modelled after Bodhidharma, the founder of the Zen school of Buddhism, who is believed to have meditated in front of a wall for nine years. The Daruma doll represents his unshakable determination and endurance, symbolising the ability to overcome obstacles and achieve one’s objectives. Beautifully crafted and rich in cultural meaning, the Daruma doll makes an inspiring gift for anyone setting goals, starting a new chapter, or in need of encouragement.
