‘There’s a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in’. At Holly & Co we believe that it’s our imperfections that make us unique and beautiful – and why we love Kintsugi. Kintsugi is an old Japanese art of fixing broken pottery with gold, encouraging us to recognise that we must learn that there is beauty in the cracks.
This ‘Kintsugi Kit’ is an alternative way of gluing porcelain. By mending rather than throwing away, you emphasise the marks and scars of a product, giving it a new perspective and beauty while creating longevity. The repair kit can be used on almost any other material next to ceramic.
We hope you love your order, but should you wish to return it you can do so by following the instructions set out in the returns section of our Delivery & Returns policy.
Humade
Humade was founded by sisters Gieke & Lotte, who were united in a shared passion and dedication to create products with a bespoke and individual character. Here at Holly & Co, we adore the art of kintsugi – the process of repairing porcelain with gold. The Japanese believe that illuminating damage is beautiful, a physical expression of “mushin”, which means ‘no mind’ – fully existing in the moment. New kintsugi is a new way of gluing porcelain based on the old kintsugi technique. We’re also stocking Humade’s iron-on reMARKable gold patches, to repair your clothes to a better version of themselves.
