A fine Vintage or Antique slip cast and glazed Tanba ware model of Daruma in original box. An off white partial glaze for his cloak over a natural brown clay body. 

Tanba or Tamba ware comes from Hyogo prefecture near Kyoto and is considered one of the six ancient kilns of Japan. 

Daruma is a very popular image in Japan. Based on Bodhidharma the monk that founded Zen Buddhism in Japan. 
The image of Daruma is seen as a good luck simple, often given as gifts to bring luck to the recipient. 

The description on the box reads:

“Foundations of the Five Teachings”
A Daruma figure
By the Hermit of Tokian
Made in Tanba

There is no date on the box, but I would date this to around mid 20th Century. 

Measures 12.5cm wide x 10cm deep x 12.5cm tall

Patina

Patina is something earned over years of use and care, we like to leave it on as much as possible as it adds to the authenticity and story of each piece. Daniel has been restoring Japanese Antiques for 25 years, over that time he has learned both traditional and modern techniques for repairing and caring for treasured pieces.
