Gunma perfectural traditional craftsman. Sumikazu Nakata’s desugner takasaki Daruma dolls.
This is the largest daruma doll producer in Japan.
Takasaki daruma history:
In about 200 year ago, there lived a farmer named Tomogoro Yamagata in Toyooka village of Takasaki. He and his family made daruma dolls in winter when they were not busy on the farm. His daruma dolls were called TOyooka daruma. Appox 80 years later, many silk raising farmers in Toyooka and neighboring yawata areas started to make daruma dolls. As they became able to produce daruma dolls in large quantity, they began to sell them at the New year’s festivals at Shorinazan daruma-ji temple and the nearby areas.
Takasaki daruma dolls imbued with wishes of the creator:
Every creator of Takasaki daruma doll makes a wish for happiness and well-being of ots future owner throughout the coming year. Takasaki daruma creators make Takasaki daruma dolls believing that each and every one they make is able to eliminate the source of conflicts of many kinds by keeping families in the worls safe and secure.
Takasaki daruma creators will keep on making daruma dolls wishing for the happiness and well- being throughout the year for future owners for many years to come.
Traditional art that shows in the facial expression of a daruma dolls:
Covered in a red priestly robe from head to toe, with big eyes wide open and lips tightly shut, daruma dolls have a sturdy body. Their thick eyebrows are drawn in the shape of a crane and the mustache in the shape of a turtle. It is believed that cranes live 1000 years and turtles 10000 years respectively. On its cheek and plump stomach, fuku or lucky/ good fortune in a kanji character, together with creases of priestly robe are painted in gold. On both ends of its face, the owner’s wishes are written also in gold letters. Every daruma dolls is made by hand carefully using the 200 year old skills and techniques.
