What is a Dorodango?

A dorodango is a traditional Japanese art form that uses earth to create textured and polished spheres. The word "dorodango" roughly translates from Japanese into English as "mud dumpling" or "mud ball". Take a look at our blog to find out more about this beautiful art form.

Specifications of this Dorodango:

Diameter: Approximately 8cm
Weight: Approximately 631g 

Each dorodango is carefully packed for safe delivery. Textures, scratches and imperfections in the surface are part of its character and appeal. The shell is hard, but delicate; handle with care to preserve its condition and avoid getting wet. Over time, moisture may be absorbed, or the dorodango may dry further depending upon its environment. A soft cloth can be used to shine the surface should it lose any of its lustre.
