東京・渋谷で親密＆本格金継ぎ＆抹茶体験

We absolutely loved our Modern Kintsugi Class with Michiko. It was such a beautiful and meaningful experience from beginning to end. Michiko was incredibly kind and welcoming. She started by explaining the history and philosophy behind kintsugi, as well as the different traditional and modern techniques, before guiding us step by step through the creation of our own pieces. Her explanations were clear and engaging, and her English was excellent. What made the experience even more special was the atmosphere she created: she accompanied us throughout the workshop with such gentleness, patience and discretion, always available when we needed help while still giving us the space to enjoy the creative process ourselves. She also treated us to some delicious Japanese sweets and prepared a wonderful matcha for us, which was such a lovely touch and made the whole experience feel even more authentic and personal. We are extremely happy with what we created and will bring home not only two very special souvenirs, but also a beautiful memory of our time in Japan. A truly wonderful experience that I would absolutely recommend!

It was an amazing experience. We spent 2 hours doing art work and learning about the various process of kintsugi art while tasting various Japanese treats and matcha tea. Michiko sensei and her assistant were super helpful in creating a fun and friendly workshop. This was a fun way to top off a birthday trip. Afterwards we all agreed that it was one of the most memorable experiences we've ever had in Tokyo. I'd recommend others to do it for a special occasion or making a memory that you wish to treasure. Lastly you get to take home a special personalized art work. Personally I think it was priceless. Tip: I recommend arriving 10 minutes early as it took us some time to find the small office door upstairs of the grey bulding. Also, I'd not trust Uber to arrive on time. There was traffic and rain delay on our day of event.

We had such a wonderful and truly special experience at this Kintsugi Workshop at mon cadeau kintsugi in Tokyo! The experience was incredibly personal and intimate. The owner and sensei Michiko took so much time for us, explained everything with great care and patience, and guided us through the process. She was also very supportive in arranging this special appointment. We had a wonderful time, learned so much about the beautiful philosophy behind Kintsugi, and created our own self-made Kintsugi keepsakes to take home. Definitely one of the highlights of our Japan trip! We are very grateful for this special experience and would definitely recommend Michiko’s Kintsugi workshop to anyone visiting Tokyo. ❤️

A peaceful oasis in the midst of one of the world’s busiest cities. Michiko is a kind and patient teacher. I am so glad that I slowed down to enjoy a meaningful morning to make something beautiful together.

We had a lovely time trying kintsugi during our trip to Tokyo. Our teachers and hosts were very welcoming and we had a chance to relax for a couple hours and each repair a small dish. The experience is like going to an artist friend’s home. Highly recommend this activity!

I booked this session for my daughter and her friend, two 14 years old girls and they loved the experience ! They came back very enthousiastic, saying t was an amazing kintsugi experience. They told me that the ladies were extremely polite and welcoming. They took picture of the artwork and were very pleased to share it with me. It is a little bit pricey but it is worth the money considering the quality of the lesson, environnement and human value, authentic Japanese traditions and hospitality. I would definitely recommend !

You have to climb a few steps to discover that you are in the right place!!

From my granddaughter: "I am 11 years old, and this was one of the best things I did in Japan! I had never heard of kintsugi before, and now I think it's amazing. I loved repairing a broken bowl with gold, and I learned that broken things don't have to be thrown away—they can become even more beautiful. My teacher was so sweet and kind. She smiled all the time, explained everything patiently, and made me feel like I could do it too. I never felt nervous, even when I wasn't sure I was doing it right. I also loved making real matcha tea and learning lots of interesting stories about Japan. It didn't feel like a lesson at all—it felt like spending time with someone who really loves sharing her culture. I will always remember this class and I can't wait to show my kintsugi bowl to my friends when it arrives home. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!"

This was an excellent experience. It was intimate and authentic. Michiko is a true artist and you can tell she loves what she does. She takes pride in her craft and is a great teacher. Her assistant was attentive and helpful. I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to try a Kintsugi workshop.

I loved the Kintsugi class with Michiko! It was such a lovely exprience, learning something about japanese culture and traditions. As we live in a very convenient and fast-paced world, it’s so easy to replace anything. But this workshop teaches you, there is beauty in repairing something that’s broken. Making it a unique piece and seeing potential in something that is “not perfect”, maybe making it perfect in your individual way. Especially crafting with own hands can bring so much joy and peace and is such a meditative practice. Michiko is really a kind and warm person and her knowledge and craftsmanship are amazing. It was an honour to learn from her. I can highly recommend this workshop for anyone, who is looking for a very unique experience in Japan, where you walk out with a self-made souvenir, a light heart and smile on your face. What a nice way to spend the time during a rainy day. Thank you Michiko for providing the beautiful space! I feel grateful to have met you (:
