The Echo of Winter in a Kintsugi Chawan: Warmth, Stoneware, and 22-Karat Gold
Imagine the comfort of hot tea, warming cold winter days. It’s this feeling that this Han Tsutsu Gata chawan invites you to rediscover. Designed to retain heat, it’s the perfect companion for tea lovers, a treasure of tradition and resilience.
Crafted from Japanese stoneware, its green enamel evokes the serenity of winter landscapes. The potter’s mark, discreetly etched on its foot, testifies to its authenticity and history. With its generous dimensions (12cm in diameter, 8 cm in height), it offers a comfortable grip and an ideal capacity to savor every sip.
Broken by time, this chawan was resurrected by the magic of Kintsugi. I restored its cracks with infinite delicacy, using pure 22-karat gold to highlight the scars of the past. Each golden line tells a story, that of resilience and the beauty of imperfection.
This chawan is not just an object; it’s a sensory experience. The warmth of the tea, the texture of the stoneware, the sparkle of the gold—everything comes together to create a moment of pure harmony. Restored with food-safe materials, it can be used for drinking.
Whether you’re a connoisseur of the tea ceremony, a collector of Japanese art, or simply looking for a unique and history-laden object, this Kintsugi chawan is a treasure to cherish, a symbol of warmth and eternal beauty.
