Kintsugi initiation workshop in Paris 11th arrondissement

Good initiation with a competent and friendly instructor Good, relaxed and attentive atmosphere.

Topissime, great time with my daughter and super hostess 👍

I left for a workshop in Kintsugi, a Japanese technique, I was expecting a place with a rather hushed welcome and broken Japanese-inspired crockery. In fact, we arrive in a café-workshop, the lower level of which is reserved for individuals or small groups of friends who have come to try their hand at pottery. A bit noisy, a bit of a mess! Nevertheless, the workshop takes place upstairs in a private room, but not really away from the hustle and bustle downstairs. The crockery provided, if you don't bring your own, is far from Japanese-inspired. It's a bit of a shame, given the context, atmosphere and rendering. The hostess's welcome was pleasant. After an explanation of this Japanese philosophy, she accompanies us to carry out our "Kintsugi repair". The explanation was present, but would benefit from a little more detail, if we were to leave with "our work" but a little more advanced knowledge. An hour and a half workshop without even a free glass of water! A bit of a shame, too. So there you have it, a workshop on the surface. A bit disappointing.
