Kintsugi (aka kintsukuroi) is the Japanese method of repairing broken ceramics with a special lacquer mixed with gold, silver, or platinum. Said process aims to restore the broken piece not by hiding the damage but by visibly incorporating the repair into it, preserving its history. The final result is impressive.
