Kintsugi, like other traditional arts of Japan, combines refined craftsmanship and deep philosophy. Literally, kintsugi is the restoration of ceramic items using lacquer mixed with gold or silver powder. In the Japanese understanding, kintsugi is the golden poetry of life. It is a metaphor conveying the emotional state of a person who has found themselves in a difficult situation and is forced to gather something new from the shards of their former, broken life. A master of this art is able to transform difficulties and defeats into a source of strength. This philosophy represents one of the strongest and most successful lifestyles that Japan offers.
