How to use a Daruma Doll

The Daruma is a popular good luck doll in Japan. It comes with two blank eyes, one of which is painted in when a person sets out on a task. The presence of the one-eyed Daruma acts as a constant reminder of the unfinished task. Once the task is completed the second eye can be filled in.

Japanya stocks a range of different sizes of daruma from small (5cm) to large (18cm)
