Description

This blue-green glazed terracotta bowl with “hare’s fur” texture was made in France by an artisan potter.

The red clay is coated with a high-gloss glaze.

This is a “Tabi” bowl: smaller in size, it’s made to travel.

Cracked but not broken, I restored it using traditional Japanese lacquer, called Urushi, and 24-carat gold. I call this technique Kintsugi Chinkin-bori, which is originally a lacquer incision technique.

You can reuse this bowl to drink your favorite tea, or simply keep it as an object to admire.

It measures 9.5 cm in diameter and 5 cm in height, and is truly unique.

Myriam’s opinion: The Kintsugi chinkin-bori allows you to acquire an absolutely beautiful bowl, but at a more affordable price.
