Traditional, lacquer based kintsugi, step 1 on Karatsu katakuchi, applying red lacquer.
Apologies for the poor sound quality.
This step shows the application of red on a Karatsu katakuchi in preparation for gold. It is cold in my studio so neither the brush nor the lacquer cooperates in application.

Traditional, lacquer based kintsugi, new website
I have decided to make a new site from which I can sell from. Up until now I have sold through Etsy and found it convenient although expensive in fees. They have just raised their fees to a potential 15% of a sale


which I assume most sellers will deal with by raising prices. Instead I will either set up a store on this site or make a new site. The domain won’t change, it will still be the same URL.

These 2 bowls came to me a couple of months ago and I am getting around to working on them.
Both are very old, from 16th. –17th. century, Korean.
