White porcelain kintsugi bowl. Kintsugi philosophy says that breakage and mending are valuable parts of a past which should not be hidden. Wounds and healing are part of our history, part of who we are. Every beautiful thing has an history to be shown. This makes a kintsugi bowl a very meaningful and profound object to be donated. 

TECHNIQUES & MATERIALS

This Kintsugi is my personal adaptation of the japanese technique. I use 22 carat gold leaf to treat every bowl that comes out damaged from my kiln.

The delicate look and lightweight feel is achieved by using very thin slabs of porcelain. Each piece is carefully slab built using porcelain in my studio in Italy, glazed in transparent inside, sanded smooth outside and fired twice to 1255°. Everything I use is food-safe.

The clay I use is a high quality porcelain and it has high translucency. 

Please note that each plate is one of a kind and the photo represent the exact piece that I'm going to ship.

CARE FOR ENVIRONMENT

Clay is a natural and long-lasting material, therefore environmentally friendly. It is part of our tradition and history as many everyday objects were made of clay since ancient times. Since I care about environment, I use recycled packaging when possible and ask you to re-use it.

With your purchase you help me support Greenpeace: 1% of the value of every sale will be destined to protect our planet.

Thanks for visiting my shop!
