[Basic Kit] Traditional Kintsugi Tutorial – Food safe method – Broken ceramics



Hi, Iโ€™ m Chimahaga, Kintugi repairer based in Tokyo๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต.

In this video, I explain the process of repairing broken ceramics by kintsugi.

[Please note]
This method can only be done with the tools and materials in my kit.
This method cannot be used with other kits such as the following
ใƒปKits that do not use urushi
ใƒปKits with bengara in powder form

08:18 Day4 First coating
10:50 Day5 Second coating
12:40 Day6 Finishing

[Food Safe]
This is a traditional Japanese kintsugi using natural urushi.
It is not an alternative kintsugi technique using resins such as epoxy, so it is a food-safe method that can be used safely on tableware.

  2. I broke a very important piece of ceramic and clay pottery into 2 pieces. Would be willing to ship it over to you and get it repaired if possible. Please let me know how can I proceed. Willing to bare the shipping and material charges. Thank you.

  3. Absolutely stunning. I have seen pieces completed using this technique, but this tutorial took us step by step through the entire process. I was interested in learning this technique because I have a beautiful piece that has cracks, and I couldn't bear discarding it. This repair process would make it usable and a beautiful piece of art at the same time. Thank you for inspiring me to try this method.๐Ÿ˜Š

  4. I came here to learn how to repair a large, gorgeous bowl made from volcanic ash of the island where I was born. Decided it would be much easier to send out for repair. Then quickly realized that would cost more than my mortgage. ๐Ÿ˜ข
    Even ordering enough kits would cost big money. ๐Ÿ˜”

  5. That was so much more complicated and harder than I ever imagined. It really made me respect this art so much more. Kudos to whoever made thisโ€” that was amazing work. I had no idea it was that complicated and took that long.๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿฅ‡

  6. I love how though and THOROUGH the instruction is !! I gained confidence going about it just by watching the video. I've been having very vague idea and always thought without the kind of professional humid box I can't ever do it. Thank you for this. I'll do it on my chipped off wooden plate I love.
