Japan Antique Daruma Hand-Carved Talisman of Perseverance and Good Luck
About the Item
Japan, a dramatic large-scale antique Daruma hand-carved in the round with
finely detailed hair, nose and brows - a wooden Talisman of perseverance and good luck from the early 20th century.
These were hand turned and hand carved to serve as solid wood molds for making paper mache versions.
While they occasionally appear in Japanese antique markets, this fine deeply carved example has a distinctive face with a very resolute, dignified expression- one of the best carvings and quality we have seen in our Japanese travels.
Dimensions: 11 inches tall and 11 inches width
Quality: Good original quality as acquired from Japan.
Handmade and hand-carved
Provenance: Old Northern Japan collection.
History of Bodhidharma
The Daruma or Bodhidharma, was the founder of the Zen sect of Buddhism. Daruma has a design that is rich in symbolism and is regarded more as a talisman and as a symbol of perseverance and good luck, making him a popular art form.
