    Default ???? (kinsugi)

    Hopefully vsalon can handle the hiragana. So I got some of shinomaster's awesome pottery a while back. One ???? in particular was my favorite. Unfortunately, Clara (my kitty) took an interest in it also and performed a gravity experiment with it. I was super upset, and hastily put the pieces in the trash and made an attempt at moving on. Fortunately my wife was smarter than I am, and for my birthday I unwrapped this:





    She sent it off to a master in Japan, who used the art of ???? to join the pieces back together and make something even more beautiful. Imperfection is perfection and all... I'm so happy!

    That's a great story.

    From something broken, comes something more beautiful and more whole.

    Clearly about their lead singer's marriage break up and rebuild of his life. Somewhat on-topic!

    Very cool reincarnation of your bowl.

    Your wife deserves a treat!

    I am looking up at 2 small shinomaster bowls on the shelf. We can't have a cat because my wife is allergic.
