Description

The Striped Daruma Doll Chopstick Rest brings both charm and tradition to the dining table. The Daruma, a figure rooted in Zen Buddhism, is cherished in Japan as a symbol of perseverance and good fortune. With its round form and steady gaze, it represents the spirit of rising again after setbacks, making it a popular gift of encouragement and hope.

This miniature rest carries that same spirit while serving a practical role in daily dining. The surface is finished in bright red, the traditional color of Daruma dolls, accented with bold gold stripes that give it a festive glow. Small yet full of character, it keeps chopsticks neatly in place while adding a playful note to the table.

Perfect for auspicious occasions such as New Year or simply for brightening everyday meals, this piece is more than a utensil holder. It offers a touch of good luck and a reminder of resilience in every meal.
