Made in Kurashiki,
OKAYAMA

The clothing manufacturing process generates a lot of scrap material through processes such as cutting the fabric.

It is estimated that approximately 45,000 tons of waste are generated annually during the domestic clothing manufacturing process.

Denim Daruma dolls utilize denim scraps generated during this manufacturing process.

Each item is carefully manufactured one by one at a sheltered workshop (Type B) in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture.

Daruma doll and recycled denim

~A new lucky charm that fuses Japanese tradition and sustainability~

Previously discarded denim waste is now used to make "Daruma" dolls, which are cherished as lucky charms.
I came across them. The craftsmen put their hearts into it, carefully finishing each one by one.
This is a unique local Daruma doll, a fusion of traditional techniques and the distinctive character of denim.
