The Kintsugi spots worldwide: who to contact to repair an object with the Kintsugi technique

The Kintsugi 's best addresses around the world

Save a broken object instead of throwing it away

You have broken an object that you hold a lot. You loved it, it was meaning... Maybe even symbolic. And now he lies, in a thousand pieces, on the ground.

And if, instead of throwing it away, you gave him a second life and rebet it with the technique of Kintsugi ? This traditional Japanese art cures broken objects with natural lacquer and genuine gold powder. The scars of the object are underlined with gold: the object is paradoxically more beautiful, stronger, and more precious than before its accident!

Sharing the love of objects

I do not resist to share with you this pretty reflection of a craftsman Kintsugi , Perfect summary of the love brought to the restored objects and the spirit Kintsugi :

I have not yet read your book but I find your site remarkable in that it really addresses all aspects of this art in its aesthetic and spiritual dimensions. May your work help to make this technique known and hopefully open a space for reflection on the value of things. The love of the purchase has replaced the love of the object. Like you I think the Kintsugi Can inspire another way of considering that anything that is broken can be reborn. Being above all a professional of art restoration, I believe that the work of restoration requires to respect specific techniques, but it can not be successful without a true sense of aesthetics and a sincere emotion in contact with the piece "neat" and this , regardless of the market value of the object. So thank you for giving to know something other than the ease that prevents to perceive the profound meaning, scarcity and value of this art. » Helen
