Kyo-yaki Kintsugi Screw-back Clip-on Earrings, Purple Floral Pattern, Traditional Craftsmanship No. 267

These are SDGs jewelry pieces featuring Kintsugi, upcycled from ceramics by Fukukikama, a Kyoto-based studio specializing in Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki pottery. Broken or chipped ceramic items, no longer in use, are repurposed and adorned with Kintsugi to be reborn as accessories. The concept behind these creations is to connect people with nature and Japan's enduring traditions, transforming them into modern accessories that look towards the future and open up new possibilities. These are elegant purple ceramic shards adorned with a floral pattern. Kintsugi is applied to the sides of the ceramic pieces, allowing the gold to beautifully complement the design from every angle, adding a touch of sophistication. These pieces are perfect as a focal point for both casual and elegant outfits. Length: 15 x 15mm Hardware: Screw-back clip-on earrings (hardware cannot be changed) Weight: Despite being ceramic, they are lightweight and comfortable to wear. Each accessory is a one-of-a-kind creation, making them an ideal choice for gifts. They also make a thoughtful present for someone special. *As these are finished, one-of-a-kind pieces, we are unable to accommodate requests for hardware changes or future reproductions. *We will ship the item pictured. However, if it has already been sold on another platform, it may be produced to order. In such cases, please be aware that there may be individual differences in color, pattern, and size of the ceramic shards and natural stones compared to the photograph. *"Kintsugi" is a traditional Japanese repair technique that mends broken or chipped ceramics using lacquer and gold powder. This piece utilizes a modern, simplified Kintsugi method. Unlike traditional Kintsugi which uses genuine lacquer derived from the urushi tree, this technique uses adhesive for structural bonding. The Kintsugi areas incorporate lacquer (a manufactured coating, not raw urushi) and gold powder (brass powder, pearl powder), along with UV resin for added reinforcement. --------------------- Gifts, Presents, Ceramic Shard Accessories, Arita Ware, Imari Ware, Natural Stone Accessories, One-of-a-Kind Accessories, Gifts, Pottery Accessories, Natural Stones, Kintsugi, Kintsugi Accessories, Simplified Kintsugi, Modern Kintsugi, Unique Accessories, Retro, Japanese Modern, Elegant & Cute, SDGs, SDGs Accessories, Mother's Day, Mother's Day Gifts, Small Gifts, Outfit Accents, Kintsugi Jewelry, Kintsugi Jewelry, Japan Traditional Crafts, Japan Jewelry
