Description

An ancient Japanese emperor once broke his favorite tea cup. Instead of simply throwing it away, he put it back together with gold, thus creating the Kintsugi Vase Technique as an art form. By rejoining the broken shards, he made the cup more beautiful than it was before the damage. However, Kintsugi is not just about art. It’s also about embracing imperfection.
