Unique Kintsugi Sake Cup Silver 1

As this Kintsugi piece is one-of-a kind, we can offer only until it has sold.
Product Description
Not only famous ware and studio/workshop vessels can be used for Kintsugi. This piece is our experiment in Kintsugi. It is a broken piece of unknown pottery purchased from a vintage store, but that's why we were able to freely apply Kintsugi to it.
In order to create a new sustainable value, Mr. Suginaka, an urushi (Japanese lacquer) Meister, repaired the chips using Kintsugi, a unique Japanese ware repair method.
In this piece, silver was used instead of gold. The chipped parts are repaired using amber urushi (Japanese lacquer), which is completely different from the original porcelain, making this piece different from other Kintsugi works. This is a creative and unique piece that you can feel the interest of art. You can feel the beauty of imperfection from the Kintsugi.
You can drink Sake while feeling the season. Why don't you spend a wonderful Sake time with one-of-a-kind Kintsugi ware?
All materials we use are natural and do not have any risks of toxicity.
The piece comes with a Paulownia box, including care advises and a certificate of origin and quality.

How to care for Kintsugi Piece
- After use, wash the pieces using a soft sponge and food-safe detergent.
- Rinse them in lukewarm or cool water and completely dry them using a soft dish cloth.
- Do not soak them in hot or cold water for long periods of time. This may cause the urushi or maki-e lacquer to peel or fracture.
- The urushi (Japanese lacquer) may break or the maki-e lacquer decoration may peel off if the piece is dropped or if it collides with other hard objects. Please handle these pieces carefully.
- Do not place these pieces in the microwave or dishwasher.
