7-Die Set Japanese: Blue Star Lotus

The genesis of the Japanese Dice Set is strongly influenced by Virtues derived from the old traditions of the Samurai, known in the West mainly in an embellished, romantic version. This is completely sufficient to transfer certain elements to our times, creating a vision of the Samurai as a man not only trained in combat but also having adamant willpower, unrelenting self-discipline, and a strong system of values. According to the Bushido Code, these noble warriors were a great example of what every man and woman should strive to be in their lives.

The Bushido Code is represented by seven major Virtues, originally called Gi, Rei, Yu, Meiyo, Jin, Makoto, and Chu – translated as Integrity, Respect, Courage, Honor, Compassion, Honesty, and Loyalty, respectively. We wanted our Japanese Dice to reflect these Virtues in a non-obvious but eloquent way. We know that our fans are gifted with great imagination, so we allow ourselves the following interpretation.

The Blue Star Lotus is a set that embodies the Virtues of Bushido by constantly striving for perfection – to become the best version of yourself, by continuously practicing what requires training. By using these dice, you may get the feeling that you gain more experience with each subsequent roll. And this impression will be absolutely correct, as whenever you perform this specific pattern of movements with your hand, you slowly gain more and more proficiency in it. Of course, we can’t promise you that you’ll get such expertise as to roll a score exactly as planned each time… but your moves will surely acquire grace and confidence over time, worthy of a seasoned player.
