Looking for cute date ideas this Valentine's Day? Join Kintsugi Australia for their calming kintsugi class for beginners and learn about the ancient art of mending broken ceramics.
Kintsugi is the ancient Japanese art of mending broken pottery using lacquer, with gold, platinum or silver, which dates back to 15th century Japan.
In this class, you will learn some of the basic techniques using modern materials such as epoxy glue and putty. With guidance from an expert, you'll use an original technique designed by Kintsugi Australia to mend your broken ceramic in a Modern Kintsugi style. Your teacher will also explain where you can get the materials to do this calming art at home!
The philosophy of Kintsugi is that an object is sometimes broken, however, this is part of its life. Rather than throwing the object away, it can be repaired and have its cracks remain to show its history and story.
This philosophy is not only applied to broken objects but also to our minds and bodies. It can become even more beautiful and precious than before!
This is a beautiful art to learn while also helping with sustainability too.
If you're looking for unique date ideas then this Kintsugi class in Sydney would be a great pick for you this Valentine's Day!

Jun Morooka was born in Tokyo in 1959. He moved to Sydney in 1987 and in 2008 he started to manage a Japanese restaurant called JIPANG. He fell in love with kintsugi after watching a TV documentary. He decided to go back to Japan to train with five kintsugi masters in Kanazawa and Tokyo. In 2018, he established Kintsugi Australia in Sydney.
