Kintsugi Pottery Repair Workshop Reviews

5 Rating 22 Reviews

This is a fun activity in Heswall, Liverpool

We need to become more aligned with the concept that something being “broken” does not mean that it is useless. Nor do we have to see the concept of actually restoring something as making it ‘as new’.

Kintsugi teaches us that in life we can turn adversity into something that is beautiful and resilient and shows us that in time, we can heal from our wounds, embrace our imperfections, and become stronger.

Kintsugi known as the golden repair translates as ‘kin’ meaning gold and ‘tsugi’ meaning 'join'.

Using a 2-part epoxy glue, premium non-toxic and gold powder we will repair a Japanese-inspired piece of pottery.

We will take our time and gently convert our bowl into a beautiful piece to display and cherish reminding us that no matter our difficulties, we can find a way to reframe and find meaning in life.

“We loved this class. It was such a calm and cathrtic way to spend the afternoon. The whole process was laid out very clearly with detailed instruction but we would all work at out own pace and experience level.”

“Had a fantastic time!! Sammy was warm, welcoming, and super helpful. She put us completely at ease. Her explanations and demos were very detailed, and I felt very comfortable. I loved that the class was structured to go through the entire process, from breaking the piece through to a finished piece to take home. I was slightly slower than the group, but Sammy made sure I had everything I needed to finish at home, so I didn’t feel rushed to keep up with the group at all. We will be back, for sure!”
