Dorodango - The japanese art of making mud balls
Bruce Gardner2019

Did you ever make a mud pie as a child ?

In Japan, children make mud balls called hikaru dorodango, and this earthy pastime has now been adopted by people around the world. Using the humblest material, a dorodango is formed by rolling earth into a perfect sphere, and polishing it by hand until it gleams.

Anyone can make a dorodango, but it requires a little know-how. Dorodango master Bruce Gardner shares his experience and techniques, from finding the right earth to achieving different finishes. Known to induce a flow state, this mindful process brings as much satisfaction as the beautiful object made by your own hand.
