Kintsugi (金継ぎ), meaning "golden joinery," is a traditional Japanese method of repairing broken pottery. Using lacquer mixed with gold or silver to mend the broken pieces, it embraces the history of the vessel by highlighting, rather than concealing, the damage, thereby beautifully revitalizing it. This appearance symbolizes "renewal," "healing," and "the beauty of accepting imperfection," and is highly regarded worldwide. This small plate is inspired by the spirit of Kintsugi and is a work meticulously crafted by artisans, one piece at a time. Each piece has a unique expression, making it a special, one-of-a-kind item. ■ Condition: New, Unused ■ Country of Origin: Japan ■ Material: Porcelain ■ Dishwasher × / Microwave × / Direct Fire × ※ Repaired with lacquer mixed with gold (not repaired with pure gold only).
