Description
Create your own unique jewelry piece in a kintsugi workshop in Kanazawa. Choose from a selection of Kutani ware fragments, and enjoy a local tea tasting at the end of the workshop.
Begin your kintsugi experience by choosing a piece of Kutani ware, a traditional ceramic with a history of about 370 years. Select a piece that was broken during the Noto Peninsula earthquake, and pick your favorite color, pattern, and shape.
Learn how to create your own unique kintsugi accessory, such as a necklace, earrings, or a pendant. Discover the art of kintsugi, which is about more than just repairing broken items; it’s about giving new life to something that was once damaged.
Enjoy a small group setting with personalized support, making it easy for beginners to participate. After your workshop, relax with a cup of local Kaga Bocha tea served in a Kutani ware teapot and teacup.
