About the Item
A striking hand-carved wooden sculpture of Daruma. The figure is carved from a dense, dark hardwood, showing a deeply expressive face with furrowed brows and meditative intensity — a symbol of resilience and unwavering focus.
Daruma, known as the part of Zen Buddhism culture, represents perseverance and inner strength. This particular piece captures the spiritual gravity of Daruma’s character, with minimal yet powerful detailing. The natural aging of the wood and its smooth, time-worn surface only enhance its presence and character.
Traditionally used as a spiritual symbol in temples or homes, this sculpture today serves equally as a meditative object, a collector’s piece, or an accent in a wabi-sabi or minimalist interior.
