Description
You can experience repairing broken objects using the traditional lacquering technique KINTSUGI. You will approach the WABI-SABI, which is viewed as a variety of beauty woven by changes without negatively accepting dirty or chipped vessels as deterioration.
Please bring your ceramics or porcelain that you would like to repair. If you don’t, please let us know. (Only two items per person due to storage space limitations.)
We will glue the broken pieces with lacquer.
It takes about a week for it to harden as we use natural lacquer.
If you would like to continue the process, please make a reservation after one week.
Overseas travelers can send vessels in the process of being worked on by EMS. (Shipping cost is additional)
KINTSUGI kit is available for purchase.
*Please note:
It won't be completed in one session.
Natural lacquer can cause inflammation if it comes into contact with the skin. Always ensure that you wear gloves when using it.

Great class
I really enjoyed this experience, even though I couldn’t do all the steps for one piece in the allotted time, I was still able to go over the whole process and practice parts of it on different pieces.
