Kintsugi Porcelain plate with peonies

Unique piece restored using the kintsugi technique

This magnificent porcelain plate, 29 cm long and 21 cm wide, was entirely hand-crafted in France by the Entreterre workshop. It is distinguished by its immaculate whiteness and exceptional finesse, testifying to the unrivalled craftsmanship of its creator.

A unique piece marked by history

If time has left its mark on this unique creation, it’s to give it an even more singular dimension. In fact, the plate suffered a break during firing. To preserve its authenticity and beauty, I restored it using the ancestral kintsugi technique. This Japanese method involves filling cracks with gold lacquer, sublimating imperfections and transforming the scar into a work of art in its own right.

Far from being a flaw, this meticulous restoration gives the cut a unique soul and a captivating story. Each golden line tells the story of a chapter in its existence, underlining its resilience and timeless beauty.

To make it even more extraordinary, I made a maki-e of peonies in 24-carat gold. In this way, the break is transformed into a branch, bringing life back to life.

A functional and decorative piece

Despite its repaired crack, this porcelain plate keeps all its functional qualities. You can use it to serve fruit, desserts or petits fours. It’s an ideal decorative object to embellish your table or buffet.

A work of art at the crossroads of craftsmanship and tradition

In acquiring this unique plate, you are acquiring a work of art that is both functional and decorative. It embodies the excellence of French craftsmanship, sublimated by the ancestral technique of kintsugi. This singular creation will bring a touch of elegance and originality to your home, while telling a fascinating story.
