Kintsugi is a traditional Japanese art form that involves repairing broken pottery or ceramics using lacquer mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. Instead of hiding the cracks and imperfections, kintsugi highlights and emphasizes them. The philosophy behind kintsugi is to celebrate the history of the object and recognize the beauty in its flaws, turning the mended piece into a unique and aesthetically pleasing work of art. This practice reflects the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, which appreciates the beauty of imperfection and impermanence.
