Plan the Shirakawa Daruma visitSAME STAGE · THREE OBJECTS
Start with one of six evidence questions. The preset selects three regional files and shows place, material, silhouette, face and eyes before any optional 3D model loads.
START WITH YOUR QUESTION
Each preset opens three source-mapped files at the front view. You can change every selection in the workbench afterwards.

Open this comparisonThe presets compare recorded fields and interpretive Web studies. They are not measurements, scans, authenticity checks or rules for every maker.
Read the five shared fields first. Load the PBR stage only when motion or side and back views will help.
Each selector uses the same 15-record atlas. A record already chosen in another position is removed from the remaining lists.
These are canonical descriptions from the same regional records used by the individual evidence files. They are not visual measurements or authenticity tests.
| Field | A · Shirakawa Daruma | B · Matsukawa Daruma | C · Mihara Daruma | Pattern |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Place | Shirakawa, Fukushima | Sendai, Miyagi | Mihara, Hiroshima | Three distinct readings |
| Material | Painted papier-mâché | Painted papier-mâché + raised appliqué | Painted papier-mâché with an internal bell or stone | Three distinct readings |
| Silhouette | Rounded, with a gentle face | Tall northern profile | Tall and compact | Three distinct readings |
| Face | Crane, turtle, pine, bamboo + plum | Blue surround + applied ornament | Bean-pattern headband + wide eyes | Three distinct readings |
| Eyes | Commonly sold with blank pupils today | Traditionally painted eyes | Both eyes painted from the start | Three distinct readings |
Open each evidence file below for its three claim-level citations and documented / illustrative / withheld boundary.
Each selected GLB is height-normalized to 100, then its axis-aligned width and depth are read from the audited binary bounds. This makes the reconstruction differences inspectable without pretending they are physical-object measurements.
| Model-space measure | A · Shirakawa Daruma | B · Matsukawa Daruma | C · Mihara Daruma | Method |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Front span index | 90.6 | 77.4 | 68.0 | Model width ÷ model height × 100 |
| Side depth index | 85.0 | 77.9 | 66.9 | Model depth ÷ model height × 100 |
| Width / depth | 1.07× | 0.99× | 1.02× | Model width ÷ model depth |
| Ground / centre | Pass | Pass | Pass | Binary origin audit |
Do not use these values to identify or authenticate a physical daruma. They describe Atlas reconstructions after digital height normalization—not real dimensions, workshop specifications, scans or proof of regional scale. Download the complete 15-file audit JSON.
Object A stays beneath Object B. Move the control to inspect where their illustrated silhouette and facial treatment differ before loading the 3D stage.
This is a normalized atlas presentation of two interpretive front posters. It is not a measurement, scan alignment, authenticity test or proof of identical physical scale.
Your A, B and C selections also update these three source-led field routes. Each guide connects the regional form to a practical base, current official visitor information and one nearby place that adds local context.

The three GLB studies and viewer runtime are withheld on first load. Regional descriptions, source links and static previews remain available.
