What you’ll learn
Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese technique for repairing broken or chipped vessels. Kintsugi, which creates new beauty from broken pieces, has been attracting attention not only in Japan but also around the world. While there are many kintsugi methods introduced in Japan, the kintsugi technique we introduce is the most classic and essential kintsugi using 100% natural materials and Japanese lacquer. You will experience the highlight of one of the many processes of kintsugi restoration: decorating with gold powder. During this course, you will also be able to learn more about the history of kintsugi, other processes, and how to collect lacquer using video and slides. The duration of the course is 90-120 minutes.
