Overview

No need to bring anything, we provide the vessel (you're also welcome to bring your own).

As this is simplified kintsugi, natural urushi lacquer is not used. Please enjoy the finished piece as a decorative item (not recommended for use as tableware).

Please wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty.

What to expect

Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese technique of repairing broken or chipped vessels by bonding the pieces and decorating the seams with gold. Rather than discarding what is broken, it embraces the spirit of "wabi-sabi" and "mottainai," giving the scars new beauty as a fresh landscape on the piece. In this workshop, you'll use a safe and easy-to-handle simplified kintsugi method, completing your work and taking it home the same day.
