Recycled eco silver urn pendant with gold plated detail inspired by the  Kintsugi philosophy

The Kintsugi technique treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise. The story goes that kintsugi may have originated when in the late 15th century the emperor sent his damaged pottery back to China for repairs. When it returned repaired with metal staples, he ordered his craftsmen to come up with something more aesthetic Kintsugi reminds us that something can break and yet still be beautiful, and that, once repaired, it is stronger at the broken places. This is an incredible metaphor for healing and recovery from adversity.
