WABI-SABI Kintsugi Repair

“In Japanese culture, there is a philosophy called wabi-sabi and it’s a unique way of looking at the world finding and appreciating beauty in old or broken things that are imperfect and falling. Under that lovely umbrella of thoughts is a handcraft tradition called Kintsugi. It’s the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer that’s been dusted or mixed with powdered gold silver or platinum. ”

Here is my take of Kintsugi repair.

WABI-SABI Kintsugi Repair. I broke this beautiful cup by accident, this gives me a reason to try Kintsugi.

This is my first experience about Kintsugi, not perfect, but I think fit the concept of wabi-sabi,-:)
