Kintsukuroi, which literally translates to “golden mend” is the Japanese art of mending broken pottery using lacquer resin laced with gold or silver. It’s beautiful, of course, but holds a deeper philosophical significance, where the mended flaws don’t just become part of the object’s design, they become its defining characteristic and leave it more beautiful than before. We’re inspired by this Japanese art of mending, and there’s no better time for a bit of gentle contemplation than breakfast. This Kintsu set in speckled oatmeal has just a hint of gold, and a little pop of red, a soft glaze will add a little depth to your everyday table setting.
