In “kintsugi,” broken dishes and pottery are not simply made whole, but their breaks and chips are adorned in gold, reflecting an ancient Japanese aesthetic celebrating the beauty in imperfection. In recent years, kintsugi has been rediscovered and reinterpreted by a new generation of Japanese artists. Correspondent Lucy Craft reports.

Though I doubt those cups and pots could ever be used for hot beverages again.
Wabi-Sabi and the aesthetic beauty of imperfection.
Beautiful technique
Its beautiful 🎉
😳😳😳love this !!
I feel like I need to break something just so he can fix it and make it better looking
Reminiscent of the Wedgwood scene in "All That Heaven Allows."
Wabi-Sabi beautiful
I always enjoy Lucy’s reports
Cool!!!
Wabisabi 😀
Have seen ALL these segments before.
Excellent food for thought.
So interesting….building up after being broken….creating beauty after being broken….reminds me of holocaust survivor Victor Frankl who created a new type of therapy for people who undergo horrific life experiences.
I would strive to never drop any pot or cup that looked that beautiful.
Wish I had had access to him decades ago. My son broke a pre 1900 Japanese tea set , 1 cup, and bowl. Sad that an 8 yr old did what was and travel could not.
this will also be good if jane pauley's face cracks
Love it!
We can all learn something from baby girl,
some of you need to listen up
it would be so nice if there were a way to make shattered people whole again without big pharma.
The Japanese truly have a unique way of looking at life, even in the form of a broken cup or plate.😊
The art of showing that something may be even more beautiful after having been broken
😮🤩😍 ASTONISHING 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️AM SO GLAD I KEPT MY BROKEN PIECES T.U. FOR YOUR BEAUTIFUL WORK & TEACHINGS🙏😍

Such a informative piece. Too bad the terrible hack news network can’t report on the fraud, waste, and abuse by our government. Not Trump, he’s not in office. I’m talking about all the ones in office now.
this proves that adage that one persons trash was spome on elses treasure. and one person's treasure can be destroyed and turned into trash. thes artisans to broken potterry and restote to a new life.
in egypt and elseware ther are grave roberrs in search of diamds and gold to be stolen from the dead as keepsakes
of a lost time or a fragment of the past.
now i realize some is a curisity of history that is fine. and preservation of times past time is important so we know where we came from and what we be come. i only belive in rewriting history if we got the history wrong. but do not rewrite histoz like not good events did not happen. the britsh knighted beatle. sang it best in a son about my life a jane francis beebe-waterschoot.
jane told me just believe like a poet
emily dickerson that be nbest is yet to be.
and the beatles sang about words of wisdom let it be. let it beebe to.
we can not fix the world unless we fix broken studff on piece at a time and be the best we can be. ad ike glen campbell sang we have to show a little kindness and overlook the blindness in narrow minded inkig in a narrow mind ed world.
we need to lend a helping hand instead of doubt.
billy currington has a phrase
god is great
beer is good
and people are crazy.
i think there are crazy good people
and tere are some crazy lazy people
then there are crazy not gpod people. and everything in between.
make the world a better place for you and me.
make a wish
and deliver on a promise ro make the world a better place for every one including you and me

It's not that kinsugi is having a surge in popularity it's just the become a cheesy etsy collector's item in the west. Cheap ceramics purposely shattered to be glued together and sold.
As a 20-year trauma survivor with severe PTSD I trained in kintsugi repair years ago. The resins that I was taught to use not only make the vase stronger but the gold adds value.
The lesson is that we suffer adversity but that we are stronger, more resilient, and in the end our wisdom is value.
Waste not want not 😊❤
The kitchen table that I’m sitting out right now is approximately 50 years old. I will be 72 years old in a couple of months. It’s been repaired a couple of times. I have told my sister even if I won a big lottery… This table would be in my new home. My late brother and parents sat at this table. My grandparents sat at this table. It has lots of good memories. ☺️😉
