Traditional kintsugi is repaired with Urushi lacquer and gold powder. This technique is incredibly intricate and specialist, I work with Epoxy resin, Gold / Silver mica powder or 23k Gold / Copper power to fix broken pieces to a similar effect.
KINTSUGI REPAIR
The meaningful ritual of kintsugi repair has been a traditional art form in Japan for centuries it focuses on repair as a celebratory and restorative act. Broken ceramics and pottery represent life, we repair and celebrate our flaws rather than hide them away. Kintsugi is translated as “Golden joinery” a beautiful story to give to special pieces.
HOW MUCH IS REPAIR?
I want everybody to be able to save their most loved pieces. I’ve repaired everything from Jade ornaments to treasured centrepieces. Repairs are priced from £20 for a small piece up to £125+, I can provide quotes and advice on any repairs.
HOW DO I BOOK?
Starting the process of repair is simple. I work on projects all over the UK. Simply count the pieces of your broken item and select the correct option from the dropdown menu on the product page.
When you have booked, you will need to package up the pieces and send the package to me in Manchester. When your piece is repaired I’ll post it back to you, ready for its new story in your home.
