Info & Care
This goshiki (five colour) set of daruma is based on the five elements of nature and the feng shui guardians of direction: wood (blue azure dragon, east), fire (red vermillion bird, south), earth (yellow dragon, centre), metal (white tiger, west) and water (black tortoise, north). Daruma are closely linked to the Japanese proverb “nanakorobi yaoki” (fall seven times and stand up eight) - weighted at the base they always try to right themselves when knocked over.
