Repair Guide
Traditional Kintsugi has been practiced for over 500 years, and I am happy to continue the tradition and repair items that would like to be mended. Currently I take orders in Sweden and Denmark.
Here is a guide to different types of repairs.
Repairs
The prices above are an estimate (Swedish Krona), if you would like to receive a more accurate quote, please email me a picture of your piece, with the dimensions of the width and height, and any other special infomormation you would like to include.
Currently orders will take at least 8 weeks from the day I receive the piece.
All repairs are food safe because natural materials and traditional methods have been used.
The gold is genuine 23.5 K or pure silver.
Things to keep in mind.
-
Do not microwave. The gold may spark.
-
Do not dishwash. It may cause damage to the repaired areas.
-
Do not leave the area filled with water for long periods (over 30 minutes). This may cause the repaired joints to lift or peel.
-
Do not pour boiling water onto the kintsugi. This may cause the repaired joints to lift or peel.
-
The gold on the surface is a very delicate. Please hand-wash gently using a soft sponge
