RE: DARUMA - Manekineko

Giving new life to materials that have served their purpose. An object of rebirth, where Japanese tradition and sustainability merge.

RE:DARUMA - Manekineko is a sister product that inherits the philosophy of "RE:DARUMA," the popular series from "FOOD STONE" which transforms food waste into beautiful interior decor.

This minimalist art piece combines the form of the "Daruma" traditional doll, long cherished in Japan, with the essence of the globally beloved "Manekineko" (Lucky Cat). Its adorable posture, raising its right paw to invite good fortune, exudes a definite presence despite its palm-sized form.

We are committed not only to reducing waste but also to creating products that preserve "the memories that materials have journeyed." We meticulously finish each piece, utilizing the natural colors and textures inherent in the upcycled food waste itself, without using any artificial dyes for coloring the main body.

Four Material Options Woven by Nature

● Coffee grounds: Deep, subdued dark brown with a modern texture
● Mikan peels: Warm, vibrant, and gentle yellow
● Perilla press cake: Natural green with beautifully prominent texture
● Onion peels: A somewhat nostalgic, familiar terracotta orange

Materials that would have otherwise been discarded are beautifully reborn through the hands and skills of artisans, as "art that invites good fortune" and complements people's lives.
