Arita Ware Kintsugi Screw-back Earrings with Leaf and Flower Pattern, Freshwater Pearl, Natural Stone, Traditional Craftsmanship No. 248

These are SDGs-conscious jewelry pieces, upcycled from Arita ware with Kintsugi. Broken or chipped ceramics, no longer in use, are revitalized and transformed into accessories through the art of Kintsugi. The concept behind these pieces is to foster a connection with nature and Japan's enduring traditions, transforming them into modern accessories that bridge the past and future, creating new possibilities. Elegant ceramic fragments, subtly revealing red floral patterns and golden leaf motifs, are adorned with freshwater pearls. The sides of the ceramic pieces are finished with Kintsugi, so the gold accent is visible from the side, adding a touch of refined elegance. These can be a perfect accent piece for both casual and elegant outfits. Length: 12 x 18mm Metal Fittings: Screw-back earrings (Fittings cannot be changed) Weight: Despite being ceramic fragments, they are lightweight and comfortable to wear. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind accessory, making it an ideal gift. A thoughtful present for someone special. *As these are completed, one-of-a-kind items, we cannot accommodate requests for changes to the metal fittings or reorders. *We will send the item shown in the photos. However, if it has been sold on another site, it may be made to order. In such cases, please note that there may be individual differences in the color, pattern, and size of the ceramic fragments and natural stones compared to the photos. *"Kintsugi" is a traditional Japanese repair technique that mends broken or chipped pottery using lacquer and gold powder. This piece is created using a modern, simplified Kintsugi method. Unlike traditional Kintsugi which uses natural lacquer from the urushi tree, this process utilizes adhesive for structural integrity. The Kintsugi areas incorporate lacquer (a commercial coating, not raw urushi) and gold powder (made from brass and pearl powders), with UV resin also used for reinforcement. --------------------- Gift, Present, Ceramic Fragment Accessory, Arita Ware, Imari Ware, Natural Stone Accessory, One-of-a-Kind Accessory, Gift, Pottery Accessory, Natural Stone, Kintsugi, Kintsugi Accessory, Simplified Kintsugi, Modern Kintsugi, Unique Accessory, Retro, Japanese Modern, Adult Cute, SDGs, SDGs Accessory, Mother's Day, Mother's Day Gift, Small Gift, Outfit Accent, Kintsugi Jewelry, Kintsugi Jewelry, Japan Traditional Crafts, Japan Jewelry
