Kintsugi - Pen Repair



A pen came in with a damage and needed some repair. It is the first repair on one of my pens and I tried to do my best. "Kintsugi" is the art of mending. In Japan things are not thrown away but are mended with urushi or and metal powders such as gold = Kin or Silver = Gin. I Japan people believe, that a mended piece can become more precious that it has been before.
