This plate was mounted with the coiling method and then enamelled in the Milky Way.
Kintsugi, in Japan, is the art of repairing broken porcelain or ceramics with a natural lacquer containing gold powder. The breaks are then underlined, carefully drawn. Better, the accident thus mended, exalted, gives the object another dimension. This art calls for patience and meticulousness, many steps follow one another: gluing, laying coating to fill in the gaps, laying of natural lacquers, multiple sandings to finish with the ultimate stage, the application of metallic powders.
My glues and lacquers used are natural, my restored pieces are still food safe.
