Eco-friendly Choice Authentic Kintsugi Soup Cup, Flower & Rhombus Pattern, Ko-imari Christmas Gift Special [NgOR69Br]

Product Description

<About Kintsugi Parts>
Ko-Imari blue ware looks great with simple kintsugi. We applied simple Kintsugi on the chips and cracks carefully with pure silver powder. The silver is finally coated with urushi (Japanese natural lacquer) to prevent it from peeling off. In addition to repairing the cracked and chipped areas with traditional Kintsugi, we have also drawn Kintsugi patterns on some other unbroken part to create a dynamic Kintsugi piece.

<About the Original Vessel>
This vessel is called Ko-Imari ware.
Vessels made in Saga Prefecture in Kyushu, on the western edge of Japan, are called Imari ware, and ones that were made before 1900, during what is called the Meiji era in Japan, are called Ko-Imari (old Imari ware), and are popular as simple living vessels at that time. Although the painted patterns on the original vessel  have the roughness characteristic of living vessels, they are in good balance with the thickness of the kintsugi line. This vessel is just the right size for a soup cup.

<Thoughts Behind the Piece>
We aim to create a sustainable, yet luxurious pieces by reviving the thoughts and times of all the artisans involved in the creation of this fine vessel through Kintsugi.
We hope that the flower pattern, and the rhombus pattern, a symbol of nobility will brighten the spirits of those who use it.

May you feel a beauty of the imperfection in Kintsugi.

All materials we use are natural and do not have any risks of toxicity.

The piece comes with a Paulownia box, including care advises, a giveaway, and a certificate of origin and quality.
