Adorned Kintsugi
Restoration, Elevated with Art
Adorned kintsugi extends the traditional restoration with decorative urushi techniques. Like all authentic kintsugi, it is bonded with natural urushi lacquer — the true heart of every restoration — and finished along the seam with 24K gold, silver, or colored urushi. Each of these finishes, with or without further decoration, is authentic kintsugi.
From there, our urushi artisans and lacquer-art graduates bring centuries-old decorative traditions into the work — raden (iridescent mother-of-pearl inlay), kawari-nuri (layered lacquer textures revealed through careful polishing), and urushi-e (hand-painted colored lacquer designs). Each decoration responds to the vessel's unique fracture, making every piece a singular work of art.
Fully food-safe, one of a kind, and presented in a branded paulownia box with a certificate of authenticity.
Authentic Japanese Kintsugi Artistry
Urushi Lacquer Craftsmanship
Restored in Japan with natural urushi, each piece is built through layered lacquer and careful polishing using time-honored methods. You can also view a short restoration video on every product page.
Kintsugi’s Artful Finishes
We restore classical Kintsugi using pure gold, but also finish pieces in silver or colored urushi to best suit each vessel. To enrich the expression, we may decorate using lacquer arts such as raden, rmaki-e, giving each scar renewed character and imperfect beauty.
Ethically Sourced & Food-Safe
Each piece begins as a valuable vessel—damaged yet worth preserving. Ethically sourced and carefully restored with natural urushi using traditional methods, made food-safe for daily use.
