April 19 | Kintsugi Workshop at Heath Ceramics

$210.00

The Scene is your introduction to Kintsugi — the Japanese art of repairing chipped, cracked, and broken tableware. Using natural materials and traditional techniques, this repair highlights the breakages and celebrates the unique story of the wares.

The Scene will guide you through the initial steps of a kintsugi repair and give you the cultural background of the craft over the course of 2 hours.

All materials included in workshop price - including a ceramic from Kyoto to repair for this workshop. Finished pieces can be shipped to your home for an additional fee payable on the day.

After the class, you'll leave the piece with POJ Studio for the curing process, and the work will be available for pickup at Heath Ceramics in early May. You can also purchase a Kintsugi Kit to complete the repair at home after any one of our classes.

Please note, depending on the number of participants, the session may run a little longer than 2 hours.

If you have any questions, please contact us at experiences_la@pojstudio.com .

Disclaimer

Urushi

While urushi can cause skin irritation in its raw, wet state, once it has completely cured and hardened, it is absolutely food safe. Urushi is one of the most durable natural materials and thus extremely well-suited for environmentally-responsible, long-lasting repair of ceramics, porcelain, and other wares.

I will be aware of my surroundings. If I accidentally come in contact with urushi, I will massage the affected area well with any plant-based oil straight away to remove urushi from my skin. I understand that POJ Studio is not liable for any adverse reactions caused by urushi.

Age requirement

The minimum age to participate in the workshop is 13 years old.
