Kintsugi-konsten: Traditionell gyllene reparation i Tokyo Asakusa

A+++!!! Would highly recommend! My friends and I had a GREAT time making our plates. We topped up to get darker coloured plates for a more prominent gold contrast and have no regrets. It was about 2000-4000 yen to top up. Elijah and Kanon were great instructors - patient and super friendly. The workshop lasted 1.5 hours and it was money well spent! The space is super comfortable and lovely. They also do chopsticks making and knives making in this studio.

one of the best experiences i had in tokyo. the instructor was patient and clear even with the language barrier, walked us through every step of repairing a real broken piece of pottery with gold. the concept of kintsugi is beautiful on its own but actually doing it with your hands makes it hit differently. cozy studio, everything provided, about 1 hour which felt just right. came out with a piece i’m genuinely proud of and will actually keep. would 100% recommend especially for solo travellers, it’s meditative and you leave with something really meaningful

The experience was smooth, I was able to make my own kintsugi then. The key is you need to be really patient, it’s not as easy as it is. Kanon was nice and supportive, thank for helping me.

kumiko and Erica were our guides. super nice ladies and helpful. The process was very well set up. The workshop is in a touristy part of the area. Our process took a bit longer (2 hrs) than our groupmates since we chose bigger plates and we were a bit slow. but they were still very nice, polite and helpful. great experience. teaching us to see beauty in the imperfections

This was a great experience for our family! April and Morgan were very patient teachers. I would recommend to anyone visiting Tokyo.

great time to spend the morning in Tokyo! We had a lovely instructor called Miyu, who spoke great English and was super friendly. the studio was nice and spacious as well.

We had such a fun time in this workshop the staff was so kind and attentive and we loved the results of our kintsugi art. I recommend doing this activity if you’re in Asakusa, so worth it!

had a fun afternoon making the art of kintsugi! Sui and Rio were both friendly, clear with their instructions. highly recommend if you want something to do in Tokyo!

thank you April for teaching us how to make kintsugi. She is helpful and professional.

Had a lovely time at this workshop, it was the perfect gift for my mother’s birthday and a fun, unique experience for the whole family. Our instructor Nono was really sweet and encouraging every step of the way especially as I was working on one of the more challenging bowls. Loved chatting with the staff and the overall atmosphere was very calming! Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Asakusa.
