Kintsugi Repair Kit, Gold

For the Fire Goddess — the one who would rather mend a thing in gold than hide the crack.

The original do-it-yourself kintsugi kit, sold since 2009. Kintsugi is the old Japanese practice of repairing broken ceramics with precious metal, so the break becomes the most beautiful part of the bowl instead of the part you turn toward the wall. This kit puts that practice on your kitchen table.

Use it on the mug you have been meaning to throw out, the plate from your grandmother, the vase that took a fall. It works on glass, wood, marble and hard plastic too. Read the guide first, take your time, and give it 48 hours to cure before the piece goes back into use.

Includes 25 g two-component adhesive, 10 g putty, 4 g gold powder, wooden brush, bamboo sticks, gloves and an illustrated step-by-step guide in seven languages · Repairs up to 10 items · Last one!
