Experience the traditional Japanese technique of "Kintsugi" at a workshop near Kyoto, Gion, and Kawaramachi. Repair broken pottery with lacquer and gold powder, breathing new beauty into it. Under the guidance of experienced instructors, you will carefully work on tea bowls and plates, and learn the concept of Kintsugi, which enjoys the scars as "individuality."
