They are again for their own: the Japanese turn casts from dirt into luxurious decorative elements

The creation of dorodango is a traditional pastime for Japanese schoolchildren, which over time has turned into an art form. Dorodango is a ball made of mud that people carefully and methodically bring to hikaru dorodango - a perfect sphere polished to a shine. This process can take several days and is meditative. Many consider it the main motivation for creating art. Dirt is applied layer by layer to an already formed ball, forming a solid outer shell. Then it is polished with a rag to give the dorodango an appearance similar to that of a billiard ball - perfectly round and shiny.

Creating dorodango was actually a forgotten art until recently, when professor and psychologist Fumio Kayo, specializing in children's play, again made it popular in Japan and around the world.
