Kintsugi Gien "Mode de Paris"

A 1950s French plate from Gien's "Modes de Paris" collection. Featuring elegant illustrations of ladies adorned in fashions from the 19th-century Parisian magazine Petit Courrier des Dames, this piece gains new character through golden kintsugi lines.

Gien, Renowned French Pottery × Kintsugi

Gien is a renowned French pottery workshop founded in 1821. Winner of gold medals at World's Fairs, Gien has enjoyed the patronage of European royal families and nobility. This plate from the 1950s "Modes de Paris" collection elegantly depicts fashionable ladies of the era. Golden kintsugi lines add another chapter to its timeless beauty.

Matte Gold Powder Finish

The final stage of kintsugi uses pure matte gold powder. Its subtle, refined luster harmonizes beautifully with the plate's subdued tones, elevating the repair from a "flaw" into a distinctive "feature."

What is Kintsugi?

Kintsugi—— a traditional Japanese restoration technique passed down for over 500 years. Broken vessels are carefully joined with urushi, a natural lacquer, and finished with gold. Rather than hiding the seams, kintsugi highlights them, giving the piece renewed life through its golden lines.

At the heart of this practice lies wabi-sabi, a Japanese aesthetic that finds beauty in the imperfect and the transient. Rather than seeing breakage as a flaw, it is regarded as a unique chapter in the vessel’s story. Kintsugi philosophy offers a quiet sense of healing in our modern lives.
