With three special guests.
The original Kintsugi technique uses a mix of clay powder and urushi laquer to first put together the broken fragments. I use a alternative method - since the original craft takes a lot more time to dry and process all application layers one at a time (takes 2-3 weeks really, or more).
In my alternative Kintsugi practice, we will work with a food-safe epoxy resin and a golden powder called Mica-powder to give it the color and shine. But if you wish, I have real Gold-powder there - but then I´ll have to ask you for an additional payment. For 1 gramm real Gold*23.75 karat, please bring additional 90-120€ (depending on the amount).
Please estimate a little bit of time and patience, since Kintsugi is not and will not become a quick handicraft - but much more an art of slowing time and a practice of fine-motoric skills.
Three people maximum, course fee: 1x 3hours, 90€ each person
