Karatsu ware, gold-plated surgical Stainless Steel steel earrings, freshwater pearl, elegant, lightweight, traditional craft, a25

This is a collaborative piece with Yoshinaga Sadam of Hakkai Kiln, a potter in Imari City, Saga Prefecture. The concept of the pieces is to allow people to feel closer to nature and long-standing Japanese traditions, transforming them into modern accessories that will continue in the future, and creating new possibilities. Small freshwater pearls are set on elegant white round pieces of pottery and then fused with gold. It's so thin and light that it feels like you're not wearing it at all. The rough, snow-like texture of the ceramic shards' surface is unusual and very elegant, making them suitable for any outfit. It is an excellent item that goes well with Japanese clothing for coming-of-age ceremonies, dresses, and casual denim. The sides of the pottery pieces have been repaired with gold, so the gold stands out even when viewed from the side, creating an elegant look. Size of the pottery fragment: 15mm in diameter Metal fittings: Surgical Stainless Steel earrings (hyperallergenic) * Metal fittings cannot be replaced. Weight: Although it is a piece of pottery, it is light and comfortable to wear. This is a unique, one-of-a-kind accessory, making it the perfect gift. It also makes a great gift for someone special. *We will send you the item shown in the photo, but if it has already been sold on another website, it may be made to order. Please note that in this case, there may be individual differences in color, pattern, and size of the pottery fragments and natural stones shown in the photo. * "Kintsugi" is a traditional Japanese repair technique that uses lacquer and gold powder to repair cracked or chipped ceramics. This piece was created using a modern version of the simplified kintsugi technique, so unlike real lacquer made from the sap of the lacquer tree, the adhesion itself is done using adhesive. The gold-jointed parts are made using lacquer (not raw lacquer, but paint made by the manufacturer) and gold powder (brass powder, pearl powder), and UV resin is also used for reinforcement.
