Kintsugi turquoise bowl in Crystallized Porcelain

The Phoenix’s Glow: Kintsugi Bowl in Crystallized Porcelain, a Golden Renaissance

Discover a masterpiece of resilience and beauty: a porcelain bowl of rare elegance, vibrant with a deep orange-yellow hue and studded with mesmerizing turquoise crystallizations. Its open and generous form, inspired by Japanese hiragata or Korean styles, invites contemplation.

The Magic of Crystallization: A Mesmerizing Process

The unique patterns on this bowl are the result of an exceptional ceramic technique. During firing at very high temperatures, specific metallic salts, added to the glaze, melt and slowly recrystallize as they cool. This complex and delicate process creates shimmering crystals embedded in the surface, offering incomparable depth and brilliance. Each bowl thus becomes a unique work of art, where the turquoise crystallizations emerge like constellations on a sunset.

A Second Life Sublimated by Gold

This bowl, despite a history marked by breakage, has regained its full splendor thanks to the ancestral art of traditional Kintsugi. Each crack has been meticulously restored, highlighted by lines of pure 22-carat gold. These golden scars are not hidden but magnified, transforming imperfection into a dazzling testament to resilience and newfound beauty. This embodies the Japanese philosophy of accepting the past and celebrating repair.

A Companion for Your Precious Moments

With its ideal dimensions of approximately 6.7 inches (17 cm) in diameter and 1.38 inches (3.5 cm) in height, this bowl is perfect for a multitude of uses. Most importantly, you can use it with complete confidence: it is perfectly safe for food contact, inviting you to savor every meal within a setting of art and history.

This Kintsugi bowl is more than just an object; it’s an invitation to appreciate beauty in imperfection, strength in reconstruction, and the richness of millennia-old craftsmanship.
