The Kintsugi mug combines traditional Japanese repair artistry with functional tableware design. Its porcelain construction features 24 carat gold applied to imitate the smoothing over of cracks, creating distinctive patterns that celebrate imperfection. The durable porcelain material ensures reliable use for hot beverages, while the gold detailing adds visual interest to your tea or coffee service.
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 mug — in a manner that imitates the smoothing over of a series of cracks, in a nod to the beauty of regeneration and repair.
