Evoking the moss of a Japanese garden imbued with wabi-sabi aesthetics or a deep forest, this unique piece is created by Taku Nakano, an internationally renowned kintsugi artist who teaches the technique to thousands of people annually. Kintsugi embraces the philosophy of seeing beauty in flaws and imperfections, making it a popular gift to celebrate those who have overcome illness, setbacks, or hardships.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOriginating from Japan's distinctive historical and cultural context, Kintsugi is a traditional technique for elegantly repairing broken ceramics. In Japan, a land frequently struck by natural disasters like earthquakes and typhoons, the practice of Kintsugi has evolved, symbolizing the people's resilience in overcoming challenges and emerging stronger and more beautiful. This philosophy is not just about repairing but also enhancing objects, making them stronger and more attractive than before.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKintsugi embodies the aesthetic of \"Wabi-Sabi,\" appreciating the beauty in imperfection and the passage of time. The \"Mottainai\" ethos, promoting recycling and respect for objects, has been a part of Japanese culture since the Edo period. This belief, that everything deserves a second chance and that overcoming difficulties leads to greater strength and beauty, is deeply interwoven with the Kintsugi technique and culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMore than just a repair method, Kintsugi represents the synergy of Japanese spirit and culture, offering not only physical restoration but also therapeutic benefits and underscoring the profound bond between objects and people. As a symbol of Japan's history, culture, and spiritual fortitude, Kintsugi adds new value to broken items, making them significant in our sustainable modern world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cb\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: Width 15\u003cspan\u003e.0 cm (5.9 in) × Height 8.5 cm (3.3 in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Made in Tokyo, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Taku Nakano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Taku Nakano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51118860075281,"sku":"0526","price":450.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/1400\/4241\/files\/Kintsugi_Plate_Oribe_Deep_Green_02.jpg?v=1739728002","url":"https:\/\/millenniumleryjp.live\/en-au\/products\/kintsugi-plate-oribe-deep-green-02","provider":"Millennium Gallery JP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
