Okiagari "The Emperor" – A symbol of power and grandeur

Bring the royal dignity and deep spirituality of Japan into your home with our Okiagari "The Emperor". This hand-crafted figure represents the millennia-old tradition of Japanese imperialism, which symbolizes a unique bond between the people and the gods.

A look into history:
Since the coronation of Emperor Ojin in the 4th century, the Emperor of Japan has played the role of supreme mediator between heaven and earth. Although he has no military duties, the Emperor represents power, grandeur and spiritual harmony. To this day, the Japanese Emperor is the only official monarch in the world to bear the title of "Emperor" - a tradition that is unparalleled.

A tradition with deep meaning:
Okiagari-koboshi, translated as "little monk who never gets up," are traditional Japanese papier-mâché lucky charms. These dolls are designed to always return to their upright position, no matter how many times they fall over. Since the 14th century, okiagari have been a symbol of perseverance and optimism in Japanese culture.

The symbolism of the emperor:
The Okiagari figure "The Emperor" reminds us that true strength and power often lie in patience and inner peace. It embodies the famous Japanese proverb: "Fall down seven times, get up eight times." Traditionally, Okiagari dolls are dropped during the Tokaichi market - the dolls that remain standing are considered lucky. It is also customary to give a doll to each family member plus one additional person to encourage growth and good luck for the family.

Special features:

  • Handcrafted tradition: The figure "The Emperor" is made in Japan from high-quality papier-mâché and is decorated with fine crepe and washi paper.
  • Symbol of power and dignity: A tribute to the unique status of the Japanese emperor - a perfect gift for collectors and culture enthusiasts.
  • Compact size: At just 4.8 cm tall, this doll is a stylish and space-saving collector's item.
  • Deeply rooted symbolism: Perfect as a good luck charm, representing strength, perseverance and spiritual harmony.
