Paperweight as your Personal Bodyguard
"My paperweight smiles at me, every day, with deep sincerity and lasting enthusiasm. It is modern, yet full of history. A treasure for home, a beautiful element of decor. I love it!"
Japanese Kawara Roof Guardian Paperweight Large – Resolute Face
This Japanese paperweight features the Resolute Face design with a bold and dignified expression inspired by the Oni-gawara, the guardian roof tiles that have protected Japanese homes and temples for centuries. Its powerful presence and sculptural form reflect the strength and spirit of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, thoughtfully reimagined for the modern desk.
Handcrafted by Echizen Seramika in Fukui, Japan, this large paperweight is made from Echizen’s iron-rich clay, known for its smooth texture and distinctive silvery-gray tone. With its generous size and solid weight of 560 g, it offers excellent stability, keeping multiple sheets or thicker papers firmly in place. When placed upright, it also serves as a small guardian figure, adding a sense of protection and serenity to your space.
More than a functional item, this Japanese desk accessory carries centuries of heritage and artistry, bringing quiet strength and refined beauty to your workspace or home.

High quality and unique gift
"Bought this traditional Kawara roof guardian paperweight and was very pleased with my purchase. Not only is this a very unique gift of very good quality, but the service and packaging from Komorebi Stationary was outstanding. Perfect communication, attention to detail and very personal "touches" (like the packaging) have really impressed me. The item is beautiful and emanates Japanese culture and craftsmanship. However, it is also compact and sturdy enough to serve it's purpose perfectly - and to double as a pure decoration as well. Perfect gift for Japanese culture lovers - or for your own desk. Arigato goseimas to Komorebi!"
Watchful, protection…and a subtle reminder
"I love this little “guy”. Authenticity and humour. Reminds me of my trip to Japan. Keeping Resolute on my desk reminds me not to give up."
