    I always liked the idea of "things that are broken can be mended and made even more beautiful by doing so" - broken pieces do shine after all ❣ It's also so much more sustainable to repair things rather than throwing them away and buying new stuff - which is something us modern days children could really learn from our ancestors and the craftsmen that carry forth their knowledge and skills. Thanks for allowing us all an insight in this beautiful traditional craft and true form of art, Shogo 🙏. And a lot of greetings and all the best wishes for the New Year from Germany 🎆 🍀🐖

    A thoughtful sort of message about age and imperfection. Through having an imperfection and fixing it, the object is more beautiful than it was before it was damaged.

    I attended a workshop also in Kyoto. For complex shapes it is actually better to assemble everything together and stabilize it with tape, then let highly liquid superglue run into the cracks. That way you don’t run in to situations like Kazu who tried to bring in a tiny piece into a tight spot. The liquid type superglue also spreads very thin and is drawn into the cracks by a capillary force I guess. After that you can fill in the cracks with epoxy paste. There is a two component one that works like plasticine, it’s less of a mess than the paint like version.
    Also although real Urushi lacquer is the best for kintsugi in Japan the have a product called „Cashew Laquer“ that’s made from cashew nutshells. It does not cause the allergic reaction of real urushi and also does not need high humidity to harden. You can see it in the store, the small yellow tins on the shelves.

    I could spend a week doing that. It reminds me of something totally different- painting miniatures. When I was younger I could sometimes just go into my head space listening to music and as I did it. I know this is more craft then fun but I can totally relate to the focus it takes to do fine detailed work.

    I never heard of kintsugi before, but it made me think of a shot glass that broke during a move and I lost the piece that chipped off. I didn’t want to throw it out, but this makes me wonder if I can attempt something similar to finally repair it.

    • @KimChi-iy7jd
      @KimChi-iy7jd Před 2 lety +1

      If it is a "better" glas quality you could try to polish the chipped area. My mom did something similar to a piece she liked. Fortunately we have some glas making manufacturs in our town, so it was very easy too achieve. The glas manufacturer just put some polish paste on the piece and used a grinding machine.
      I hope that helps. 🙏🏼💜

    Recently viewed an Antiques Road Show that had a vase that had this process applied to it over a hundred years or so ago...
    It was more beautiful than the original piece was in my opinion.
    Gave the vase a patina that looked like branches of a tree.
    It was of course valued very highly.
    Great video as always...
    Thank you.

  • @ganmerlad
    @ganmerlad Před 2 lety +2

    You know, I really like this idea a lot. I typically look at something broken and feel a strong need to throw it away because it has lost its integrity and worth. It's ruined. Even glued back together it's ruined for me. It's more of an emotional judgment than a mental one. But turning a break into a meaningful mend...adding to the piece beyond simply gluing it back together gives it a new value, makes it something different.

    I saw a video on Kintsugi some time ago (it might have been an NHK World video on YT) and fell in love with the philosophy behind it! Watching the process reminded me of many things that have been broken or chipped in house moves and accidents in my life.
    When I was a child, my family was given a ceramic Japanese teapot that belonged to my late Uncle Hubert which has a chip from many years ago. It would be lovely if I could either send it to Japan (or one day take it there myself) and watch being given the Kintsugi treatment.

Or the process with the glue makes the piece to be poison in combination with food or drinks?! Thanks you in advance!😊
