Kintsugi Starter Kit – Navy Blue Furoshiki
€168.21
Discover Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics by highlighting their cracks rather than hiding them.
Designed especially for beginners, this complete Kintsugi starter kit includes the essential materials and tools you need to discover this traditional craft at your own pace. With step-by-step guidance, you’ll learn how to repair ceramic objects and enhance their fractures with an elegant golden finish.
Each repair becomes unique: instead of concealing the marks of the past, Kintsugi celebrates them as a precious part of the object’s story.
Everything You Need to Discover Kintsugi
The kit includes traditional Kintsugi materials, including urushi lacquer, tonoko powder, charcoal, a mawata silk ball, and an alternative gold-coloured powder.
You’ll also receive the essential tools for each stage of the process, including brushes, spatulas, and accessories for precise application and beautiful finishing.
To guide you through your first repair, detailed instructions and video tutorials are easily accessible via QR code.
A Meaningful and Sustainable Gift
For an even more refined presentation, the kit can be wrapped in a navy blue furoshiki, inspired by the traditional Japanese art of fabric wrapping.
Reusable and elegant, the furoshiki naturally reflects the philosophy behind Kintsugi: caring for what already exists, embracing imperfections, and giving objects a new life.
Creative, mindful, and full of meaning, this kit makes a thoughtful gift for anyone interested in Japanese craftsmanship, ceramics, or creative hobbies.
It is also perfect for anyone wishing to experience the art of Kintsugi for themselves, from the comfort of home.

Precautions for use – Urushi lacquers
Urushi lacquers, derived from the sap of the lacquer tree ( Toxicodendron vernicifluum ), are natural and durable but require certain precautions.
Handling and safety
- Always wear gloves (nitrile or vinyl): fresh urushi can cause allergic reactions (eczema).
- Do not handle with bare hands.
- Work in a well-ventilated area, away from food and drinks.
Drying
Urushi dries by oxidation under humidity (75–80% / 20–25°C).
Drying time: from 12 hours to several days depending on the thickness and conditions.
Cleaning and storage
Clean the tools with vegetable oil (camellia, rapeseed…), then with alcohol or soap.
Keep the tube tightly closed, away from heat and light.
Do not allow the lacquer to dry on the tools.
In case of contact
Rinse immediately with vegetable oil, then with soapy water.
Consult a healthcare professional if a skin reaction occurs.
