This Yobitsugi piece celebrates renewal through contrast, where missing sections are repaired with fragments from another vessel.
Rather than concealing damage, Yobitsugi highlights it, bringing together two histories in one form.

Each repair is a careful process that demands both skill and sensitivity, ensuring the contrasting pieces find balance. The price reflects the time, care, and artistry involved, and we believe in paying craftspeople fairly so this thoughtful practice continues to thrive.

Every Yobitsugi item is one of a kind - even when starting with similar bowls, no two outcomes are ever alike.

The materials used are fully food safe, ensuring both durability and everyday usability.

Origin

Mino Ware

Mino ware is Japan's largest producer of ceramics, with a history spanning over 1300 years. It has successfully maintained its traditions while integrating modern techniques. The hallmark of Mino ware is its wide variety of ceramics—rather than a single style, it includes over 15 types registered as traditional handicrafts.

Maker / Brand

Kaneko Kohyo

Kaneko Kohyo Ceramics was founded in 1921 by Ito Kohyo in Toki City, Gifu Prefecture. Originally producing items for shrines and family altars, the company expanded to include a broader range of finely crafted ceramics. Today, they continue to create handcrafted pieces that blend originality and elegance, while preserving the beauty and tradition of Mino-yaki pottery.

Care & Characteristics

Care for Kintsugi Pieces
Due to the delicate nature of Kintsugi repairs, it’s important to handle your piece with extra care. The gold or silver-filled cracks are part of the piece's unique character, but they can be more fragile than the original ceramic. To preserve the beauty of your Kintsugi item:

Avoid using it in the microwave or dishwasher.
Gently hand wash with a soft cloth and mild detergent.
Store in a safe place away from heavy impact or direct pressure.

Characteristics
Each Kintsugi piece has its own distinctive pattern and repair, reflecting the art of mending. These pieces may show slight variations from the images, making every item unique.
