カーボンダルマ（無地） / Carbon Daruma (Plain)

おもちゃ×最先端素材（カーボン）の融合、デカールを楽しめるまるでフィギュアのようなダルマ。オリジナルタイプの塗装は自動車やヘルメットなどと同様のウレタン塗装がされています。 カーボンは色が黒であることから、地が黒色になります。 地が黒→黒字→黒字になる。 胸に大きく福の文字と合わせ家庭や会社に福を呼び、黒字で豊かになりますようにそんな願いがこめられています。 付録としてダルマの表情を表現するデカールセット同梱。

The fusion of leading edge carbon with toys. Enjoy using decals on the Daruma figure dolls! The surface of the original plain type of Daruma doll is made with urethane paint, similar to that used in automobiles and helmets. Of course the Daruma doll is black in colour due to its main source material being carbon. Black base ? Black (profit) ? Your company climbing into the black. Fuku, the god of good fortune is printed on Daruma’s chest to invite good fortune upon households and companies, enriching them with surplus. The doll’s facial expression can be changed to your liking with the decal kit included.

大好きなステッカーを貼るもよし、ご自身でペイントするもよし。自分だけのオリジナルの福だるまにしてみてはいかがでしょうか。

Alternatively, you may choose to use your own stickers on the doll, or custom-paint it to your preferences. How about making your own one-of-a kind original Daruma to enjoy?

サイズは大中小の３種類

Daruma dolls are available in three sizes: small, medium and large Daruma’s eyebrows are inspired by a traditional Japanese bird, the crane. Since olden times, cranes are believed to live for 1000 years. They are known as auspicious birds which represent longevity as well as monogamy. Crane couples are said to mate for life, loving each other and continuing on their life journey together. As the crane’s cry can resonate and be heard from long distances, the Japanese see them as birds able to reach the heavens and thus are known as lucky symbols. Gold and red eyes: The gold colour is seen to bring harmony and luck to finances, as well as gold being the colour of victory. The red colour warns off evil spirits and acts as a protective charm against disease and sickness. Daruma’s cheek whiskers are inspired by turtles: In the traditional Japanese folk tale, Urashima Taro, turtles were messengers of the dragon king. They are also known as messengers of Horaisan, a place of perpetual youth and longevity for mountain hermits, in addition to being auspicious animals in ancient China. In Japan, turtles are believed to live for 10,000 years and like cranes, represent longevity. They are auspicious animals which are highly respected. Furthermore, the hexagon patterns on the shells of turtles are often lucky omen motifs. Daruma’s beard is inspired by pine trees, the circles around the eyes by bamboo and nostrils by plums.

身体はＣＦＲＰ炭素繊維強化プラスチックで出来ており、大ダルマ ：12K平織り､ 中ダルマ ： 6K平織り､小ダルマ ： 3K平織りで、共に2PLY。 板厚は 小 ： 0.5ｍｍ、中 ： 0.7ｍｍ、大 :1.0ｍｍとなる。　 使用樹脂はエポキシを使用。 成形方法は航空機や自動車部品にも用いられる方法を採用し、 大ダルマ がＶａ−ＲＴＭ、中ダルマ・小ダルマはRTM工法で成形。 １枚１枚カーボンクロスを型に手張りし真空で１４０℃熱硬化させるため、作るのに大変時間がかかります。 そのため、小１０個/月　中５個/月　大２個/月　の限定製作となります。

The body of the doll is made of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic (CFRP). Small Daruma: 3K plain weave , 2 ply Medium Daruma: 6K plain weave, 2 ply Large size: 12K plain weave, 2 ply Material thickness: Small: 0.5mm Medium: 0.7mm Large: 1.0mm Resins used: epoxy The methods used to sculpt the dolls are similar to those used in manufacturing air craft and automobile parts. Small & Medium Darumas: RTM process (resin transfer moulding) Large Daruma: Va-RTM process (vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding) These methods are very time consuming as they require hand-forming the carbon into the moulds and hardening them with a vacuum at a temperature of 140 degrees celsius. For this reason production of these items is limited to 10 small items per month, 5 medium items per month and 2 large items per month.
