Kintsugi Reimagined for the Modern Artisan

At Kivanu, we honor the ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi, the practice of repairing broken pottery with gold, by merging tradition with modern craftsmanship.

Stories of Renewal

“I was nervous to try it at first, but the guide made everything simple. The process was actually relaxing — and when I saw the finished piece, I couldn’t believe how elegant it looked. It feels special to have repaired it myself.”
Anna G. — Kivanu Customer, New York
“I used the Kivanu kit to fix a small ceramic bowl from my grandmother. The whole experience was mindful and grounding, and the result looks beautiful. You can’t buy that kind of meaning in a store.”
Michael R. — Portland, Oregon
“Everything was packaged beautifully and easy to use. The instructions were clear, and the gold seams on my mug turned out stunning. It’s become one of my favorite pieces in the house.”
