Arita Porcelain Kintsugi Surgical Stainless Steel Piercings, Blue Leaf Pattern, Carnelian, Traditional Crafts, No. 254

These are SDGs jewelry pieces featuring Kintsugi, upcycled from Arita porcelain. We reuse broken or chipped pottery, no longer fit for use, and transform them into accessories adorned with Kintsugi. Our concept is to create modern accessories that connect to the future, allowing people to feel close to nature and Japan's enduring traditions, while breathing new possibilities into these discarded materials. This piece features a sophisticated pottery shard with a subtle blue leaf pattern, complemented by carnelian. Kintsugi is applied to the sides of the pottery fragment, allowing the gold to shimmer beautifully from every angle, adding a touch of refined elegance. These are perfect as a unique accent piece for both casual and elegant outfits. Length: 9 x 13mm Metal Fittings: Surgical Stainless Steel Piercings (Fittings cannot be changed) Weight: Despite being pottery, they are lightweight and comfortable to wear. As each piece is one-of-a-kind, it makes for an ideal gift. Please consider them as a special present for your loved ones. *As this is a finished product, we are unable to accommodate requests for changes to the metal fittings or for reproductions. *We will ship the item pictured. However, if it has already been sold on another platform, it may be made to order. In such cases, please be aware that there may be individual differences in the color, pattern, and size of the pottery shards and natural stones compared to the photos. *"Kintsugi" is a unique Japanese traditional repair technique that mends broken or chipped ceramics using lacquer and gold powder. This work is created using a modern, simplified Kintsugi technique. Unlike traditional Urushi lacquer made from the sap of the lacquer tree, this method uses adhesive for the main bonding. For the Kintsugi parts, lacquer (a manufactured paint, not raw Urushi) and gold powder (brass powder, pearl powder) are used, along with UV resin for reinforcement.
