mr kai - introduction

Mr Kai is influenced by Japanese daruma.

 

In Japan, there is a tradition where one could buy a daruma (doll) without any eyes. Upon purchasing, one would write one's wish on the doll and then fill in one of the eyes. When the wish came true, the other eye can be filled in, resulting in a complete daruma.

 

Mr Kai is one of my Up-cycled Boxes Collections, reborn from a body scrub container. Cleanly washed and dried.

 

Size: approximately 8cm diameter, 6.8cm in height.
