The Kintsugi tall vase combines porcelain construction with 24-carat gold detailing applied in a manner that imitates the traditional Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with precious metals. Designed by Marcantonio Raimondi Malerba in collaboration with Seletti, the gold lines trace across the surface in patterns that mimic repaired cracks, referencing the philosophy of finding beauty in imperfection and regeneration. The contrast between the white porcelain body and the lustrous gold detailing gives the vase a rich, layered visual quality.
Marcantonio Raimondi Malerba's collaboration with Seletti continues with the 'Kintsugi' collection, a series that incorporates the centuries-old Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with precious metals. Here, the technique materialises with 24 carat gold applied to a range of porcelain tableware items — such as this porcelain vase — in a manner that imitates the smoothing over of a series of cracks, in a nod to the beauty of regeneration and repair.
