Comment on Is it normal to be really sentimental/upset over a bowl I accidentally smashed? I had it since I was 17 (am 30 now) and my boyfriend was alive back then too.

If you can find all the pieces, have you heard of kintsugi?

If not, it’s a Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics with gold, creating something new and beautiful out of the destruction as the cracks become gold veins running through the piece.

Maybe you could find a craftsman or at least experienced hobbyist in your area who could repair it like that?

Just got what seems like most or all the pieces out of the trash. Nearly all of the part of the plate I put food in is intact so it looks like a very fat crescent moon shape. I have not heard of kintsugi but if there’s any people doing it in my area I’ll give it a go so thanks!

  Why do you care about people doing it in your area? :D

  You can buy a kit online and do it at home with a guide or video.
