Gold Daimonya Daruma

$14

Daruma have been the repository of wishes and goals in Japanese culture for centuries. Traditionally, you begin by painting the left eye first, when a goal or intention is set, adding the other eye once it is achieved.

Gold represents success with money and other life events.
