This exceptional vase, 20 cm high, is a true Japanese work of art, steeped in history and craftsmanship. Made of magnificent emerald-green ceramic, it bears the potter's signature under the foot, attesting to its authenticity and provenance. Marked by time and the vagaries of life, this vase has suffered a break. But far from being the end of the story, this accident has given birth to a new, even more resplendent life. Repaired using the ancestral Kintsugi technique, it is now adorned with 24-carat gold scars, sublimating its imperfections and giving it a unique beauty. An important gap has been filled by a Kagome motif, created with matte and shiny gold leaf. This geometric motif, a symbol of protection and spirituality, reinforces the vase's mystical dimension. More than just a decorative object, this vase is an invitation to contemplation and reflection. It reminds us that beauty can be born of fragility, and that life's trials can make us stronger and more precious. A unique and exceptional piece, this Kintsugi vase is a real treasure that will bring a touch of refinement and inspiration to your home.

Kintsugi is the art of patience, precision and meticulousness. It’s about handling precious works, objects and materials, like the pure gold needed for restoration. It’s also a sustainable art form, close to the philosophy of upcycling and recycling, which gives new life and use to broken objects. This work on resilience is at the heart of my artistic approach. My creations highlight breakage, transforming discarded objects into desirable works of art, repairing them to make them functional again, to continue writing their history. Kintsugi is about changing the way we look at things. Transforming scars into strength, cracks into beauty, filling missing pieces with gold. It’s a metaphor for the wounds of body and soul that can be repaired. Of a handicap, whether born or acquired, that can be magnified. And suddenly, what was once considered a defect becomes beautiful.
