Whether you are discovering kintsugi for the first time, learning traditional techniques using authentic urushi lacquer, or creating your own kintsugi-inspired pieces, we offer a range of experiences to suit different interests and levels.
Simple Kintsugi Workshop
Instead of traditional urushi lacquer, we use food-safe materials (adhesive and gel) that comply with Japanese food safety standards to repair cracks and chips in ceramics within approximately 90 minutes.
The finishing gold powder is made from brass powder, making this workshop an accessible way for beginners to enjoy the art of kintsugi.
The restored pieces are safe for everyday use, allowing you to continue enjoying them in your daily life.
Traditional Urushi Kintsugi Course
This is a continuous course where you will learn traditional kintsugi techniques using authentic urushi lacquer, carefully building each step of the process one by one.
The time required varies depending on the condition of each piece. As a general guideline, completing one piece usually requires approximately 5–10 sessions.
Kintsugi Jewelry Workshop
We provide a variety of ceramic fragments and glass pieces for you to choose from.
Using kintsugi techniques, you will create small handcrafted pieces that bring beauty into everyday life, such as accessories and chopstick rests.
Even fragments of a cherished piece filled with memories can be transformed into a new creation — a unique piece that continues to accompany you in your daily life.
