Kintsugi Introduction Workshop
Touci Ceramic Studio is excited to host @ThreeLittleSpruce at our new location on November 23rd 10:00am-12:00pm for a workshop that teaches traditional Japanese Kintsugi at a beginner’s level, no experience required! Traditionally a metaphor for finding the beauty in hardship and giving new life to worn items, this workshop is tailored towards a more approachable introduction to the craft of Kintsugi.
“In this standalone class, participants will learn the traditional Japanese art of restoring broken pottery, known as Kintsugi, by repairing small chips on ceramics. The intricate process of Kintsugi will be taught through hands-on instruction in a class setting. Each participant will have the opportunity to work on two chipped dishes in different stages of work during the session, and they will be able to take their restored piece home. In addition to mastering the art of Kintsugi, participants will also learn how to craft lacquer ware chopsticks, adding another layer of traditional Japanese craftsmanship to their skill set. Participants are welcome to bring their broken ceramics to the workshop to discuss how to repair them.
Important: Please be aware that we will use Urushi lacquer, essential to Kintsugi, can cause severe skin irritation Always wear provided gloves and apply Vaseline to exposed skin. Avoid contact with non-intended surfaces.
Please do not take this workshop if you’ve exposed to poison Ivy previously
