Traditionally, authentic Kintsugi requires a process that takes about a month to complete. However, in this workshop, we use synthetic lacquer instead of natural lacquer, and metallic powder as a substitute for gold, allowing participants to complete and take home their restored piece within 90 minutes.
•
We recommend using the restored piece for decorative purposes only. Please also note that the repaired item is not microwave-safe, as there is a risk of ignition.
•
Please note that the workshop venue may change depending on availability and the number of reservations. In the event of any changes, we will notify you by email with the new location details one day before the workshop.
•
Wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty.
