Teardrop urn for ashes 'Kintsugi'
Craftsmanship, tradition and contemporary design come together in the design of the Kintsugi urn. A modern, elegant design with a timeless appearance. This combination ensures that the design of the Kintsugi urn is recognised as an art piece that can be subtly combined with the rest of your interior.
Ceramic material is widely used to manufacture urns for ashes. Ceramists blend specially selected ingredients to obtain the ceramic properties required, and with this clay each artist fashions their pieces and gives them a specific finish. The resulting urn is a unique, highly attractive product.
Templates are used to make the plaster models which will serve as the moulds for the different models of these ceramic urns. The moulds are used to form the different clay models, which are then removed and the urns left to dry. Once dry, their surfaces are smoothed and they are placed in a kiln and fired. Then they are glazed and fired again.
What is Kintsugi?
Kintsugi (golden joinery), also known as kintsukuroi (golden repair), is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with urushi lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. The method is similar to the maki-e technique. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.
