The Art of Kinsugi Repair
Kinsugi is the technique of repairing broken bottery using lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver or platinum. The art dates back to the sixteenth century and it's a true ode to imperfection and fragility. It encourages us to handle objects with care, but also to accept breakage and repair as part of their history. This traditional technique matches well with the modern principles of zero waste and sustainable living. What would you like to know about use the comment section to send us your questions.
