@Lakeside Pottery Can the alternative method (non-gold) also be rubbed for the burnishing process in order to flatten it more? If so, about how long do you wait after application of the non-gold/compound mixture?
Thank you for your note. The materials used are proprietary at this time.

great work. two questions, maybe i missed it, what is the lacker wich you use to bind the gold powder? and does the gold after time oxidate? thanks for this in depht tutorial! greaty appreciated!
The lacquer we use is our own made concussion we have developed for strong bond and decent "working time". I am sure the kits available for sale out there provide good lacquer. Gold does not oxidize.
@@LakesidePotteryCeramicArt So it is NOT Japanese lacquer from a tree? The whole reasoning behind the Kintsugi is bringing life from the killing of a tree to create the lacquer.
Many people react to urushi (from the Chinese lacquer tree) like poison ivy. A large percentage of people get sick from the liquid form of it. Don't mix up the symbolism with reality. This is in not a practical repair. Plus the gold would wear off if used. It makes a fantastic art piece, however. Enjoy it with your eyes.
@@squirlmy Thank you for mentioning this. I am not terribly reactive to poison oak/sumac but I had a real problem with contact even using gloves etc. with my last kintsugi project.
@@couttsw This was the case in 16th century Japan. Using your own logic, nobody but the 16th century Japanese should be doing Kintsugi.. yet, here you are virtue signaling.

Thank you for your comments! Yes, my approach deviated from traditional Japanese Kintsugi implementation although we still perform the original process when customers ask for it. There is room for both in particular when the goal is to enable more people to have access to acquire Kintsugi art and heal themselves or loved one with this beautiful Kintsugi metaphor. On a side note -- our modified Kintsugi process (23.5K gold) was adapted by the president of the USA where my work was used as a presidential gift for the Japanese Prime Minister earlier this year - see article: www.capegazette.com/article/lewes-artist-creates-presidential-gift-japanese-prime-minister/218505 The main point of Kintsugi is it's wonderful metaphor and like many other form art, change of process is ok just like moving away from film to digital photography where access is to many more people is now possible.
It has not been an issue we encounter (over 10,000 projects for over 20 years - See link - lakesidepottery.com/Pages/Pictures/pottery%20and%20ceramic%20restoration%20before%20and%20after.html )
Hey , I was wondering the same and came to this link stating that these types of resto materials are unfortunately not food safe, link follows.. www.lakesidepottery.com/Pages/where-to-purchase-ceramic-restoration-supplies.html
Which is why they use the Japanese lacquer and tonko powder. You can then use the object again. Whats the point of repairing the object if you can't use it anymore
@@janjakubilavsky1832 It is called Urushi Lacquer. It is made from the sap of the Urushi tree and it is a natural resin. It forms a kind of natural plastic.
That's wrong, actually. Urushi, the lacquer used is made from trees containing urushiol, which is also the oil found in poison ivy and many people react badly to the liquid form and even vapours. Please don't experiment on your own! The gold would also wear off if it was used. Think of it as art only. Repair clay and porcelain with food-grade epoxy!

Best video I found on the subject
Very beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Your tutorial is very helpful. I have been wanting to try this and plan to soon.
Amazing! Where can I buy the lacquer (I live in Spain) ?
Salve, che cosa usa per amalgamare il non-oro?
Grazie!
Great tutorial.Where can I buy the non gold products you have developed 🙏
Bravo! L'avessi visto prima.....
Beautiful! 17:31, 17:59... I’d really like to see the process for these pieces!
Is that glue foodsafe?
Amazing, thanks a lot!
@Lakeside Pottery Can the alternative method (non-gold) also be rubbed for the burnishing process in order to flatten it more? If so, about how long do you wait after application of the non-gold/compound mixture?
A second question....can either of these Kintsugi methods be applied before or after a coat of cold glaze?
Great video and instruction!
Will this method work with painted terra cotta pots? Thank you for sharing!
Question what do I use as a compound with the nine gold technique do u use clear lacquer ?
What type of adhesive do you use on the outside
See link fo rmaterials and look for "PC-Clear" lakesidepottery.com/Pages/where-to-purchase-ceramic-restoration-supplies.html
What kind of lacquer is used
is the non gold food grade?
Nice work
what is the compound that used in the video to highlight the crack?

What is the lacquer you use??
Urushi
Do you sell Kintsugi kits?
Sorry, we do not. Visit this link for additional kits information: akintsugilife.com/kintsugi-supplies/
Wonderful.
Can this process be used on a carved and Acid etched glass bowl , with a crack?
thanks
Yes but if the glass is clear, the underside of the kintsugi application could be seen through.

what kind of needle/tool do you use to apply the golden resin?
It is a pottery tool. Do a search for a "pottery pintool" or "pottery needle tool"
@@LakesidePotteryCeramicArt dankeschön
Can you use the pot for eating after it is repaired?
No, this kind of repair is not meant for food use.
Thank you....
denatured alcohol for final cleanup. Isopropyl always leaves a haze.
It has not been an issue we encounter (over 10,000 projects for over 20 years - See link - lakesidepottery.com/Pages/Pictures/pottery%20and%20ceramic%20restoration%20before%20and%20after.html )
Could you use gold leaf?
Perhaps, we do not
do you also sell the materials you use?
So sorry, we do not.
Do you sale the metal effect powder and compound?
Hi Jessie, sorry, we do not sale materials.
Thanks for the reply, love your work.
What do I mix with the non gold powder to stick ?
My concern is if that epoxy and gold substitute would be food safe?
Hey , I was wondering the same and came to this link stating that these types of resto materials are unfortunately not food safe, link follows.. www.lakesidepottery.com/Pages/where-to-purchase-ceramic-restoration-supplies.html
Not usually, no.
peut on reboire dans 1 bol réparé?
non, ça devient une œuvre d'art seulement.
foodsafe?
No.
ah and would it be safe to actually use and drink tea out of the finished piece?
It will not have good longevity of used functionally. Heat will further degrade it with time.
Which is why they use the Japanese lacquer and tonko powder. You can then use the object again. Whats the point of repairing the object if you can't use it anymore
