THE JAPANESE ART OF KINTSUGI - WITH EMMA WILLIAMS - TUESDAY 18th JUNE 2024

Learn the Japanese art of threading golden lines through fragments of porcelain, breathing new beauty into fractured pieces.

 Working with 23ct gold leaf, we embrace the flaws in broken china, as we rejuvenate them and celebrate their imperfections. This ancient art serves to remind us of the beauty in human frailty. We will touch upon the history of Kintsugi as we work away, healing either treasured pieces that you bring along or choose from our lost and found pile.

You will go home from this half- day workshop with one restored piece and the means to carry on your own practice.

Morning workshop from 10am to 1pm costs £90 to include precious materials and refreshments.

No previous experience is required.

The course is hosted at The Bell in Ticehurst in their large and very beautiful function room.
