Mokumekomi is a technique in which the body of the Daruma doll is made by die-cutting the base, then gluing glue into grooves carved into the body, and inserting cloth between the glue and the body. Unlike mass-produced items, each Daruma doll is carefully crafted by hand by traditional artisans. Modern and stylish Daruma dolls are a delight to look at as interior items that add flair to daily life. Just as Setsukyu dolls do not fade away after a long time, Daruma dolls are sure to last with us for 10 or 20 years.
