Experience authentic kintsugi at home with the Kintsugi MUSUBI Craft Kit.

It contains the instructions and essentials youll need for your own journey into the craft.
Kintsugi is a vessel repair technique passed down in Japan for centuries. Rather than restoring the item to its original state, kintsugi turns breaks into beauty. It honors the passage of time and the memories shared between vessel and user. In kintsugi, cracks or chips are repaired using lacquer, then finished with artistic lines of lacquer or with metal powders. The vessel is thus reborn as a one-of-a-kind work of art that embraces its scars.
Among the items included in this kit are genuine lacquer (raw andbengara), an artists fine-detail brush from Kumano Prefecture, a high-quality gold-dusting brush crafted in Shiga Prefecture by renowned brush workshop Hankeido, genuinemawata silk floss, tonoko powder (a fine clay powder), and imitation gold powder made of lead-free brasslong used for its shine that is close to that of pure gold. See below for a full list of contents.
Kinkeshi gold powder is sold separately for practitioners who are interested in taking their art to a more advanced level.
