Kintsugi Workshop in Tokyo: Repair Pottery with Gold at Kuge Crafts Studio

Excellent experience - highly recommend!

Reviewed by: Elizabeth S

This experience exceeded my expectations from start to finish. Delicious treats and all our supplies were laid out in the small studio. We were warmly welcomed, received interesting historic perspective, and coached on all the steps in a simple repair process. Our hosts thought of everything, shared lots of media coverage about their work, gave clear instructions, helpful samples, and demonstrations. I was able to repair a beloved piece (pre-approved by photo and email) and also purchased some antique (not broken) pieces. Brilliant set up for travelling home without marring the piece!

You can create one-of-a-kind items. 一点ものが作れる

Reviewed by: ししゃも

After the staff's explanation and demonstration, I practiced on my own before the actual event. At first, I struggled with the pressure and how to approach the carving, making many mistakes, but gradually I was able to do it as I intended. With the staff's advice, I managed to complete my piece. It was challenging, but creating a one-of-a-kind item was very satisfying. Thank you very much.

スタッフの説明、デモンストレーションの後、自分で実際に練習してから本番に臨みました。
最初は力加減や彫る箇所の見方等、掴めず失敗ばかりでしたが、少しずつ思い通りにできるようになっていきました。
スタッフのアドバイスをいただきながら、なんとか完成することができました。
難しかったけど一点ものを作るのは満足度高いです。

They perfectly packed our finished goods so we could easily Transport them back to our Home Country. Also we got a Shopping List for all the stuff you need to do Kintsugi at Home, which was very practical at the Store. I highly recommend taking the class here! Thank you so much!

In memory of my mother! 母との思い出に！

Reviewed by: coco

I participated with my 85-year-old mother to create memories for Mother's Day. We chose designs based on various beautifully cut glass pieces. As expected, we couldn't cut as perfectly as the samples, and my elderly mother struggled a bit, but in the end, the staff helped us finish the pieces and even took photos to make them look great. The service was also very attentive.

数珠作り体験 手作業を通して精神統一！仏様を身近に感じる、腕輪念珠ブレスレット＜毎日催行／渋谷区＞ by 寺カフェ 代官山

I think it's a good value for the price. コスパいいと思います

Reviewed by: ぷあ

I had an experience at a very open and liberating café. The background music was playing loudly, creating a casual atmosphere rather than a solemn one typical of a temple. However, there is a statue of Buddha right in front as soon as you enter, which gives it a temple feel. The head priest from a temple in Kawasaki kindly taught us how to make the items. He was very approachable and easy to talk to, engaging in casual conversation. I think it was a great deal at around ¥1500 to ¥2000 per person, which included a prayer bead and a drink.

The only downside was that the café staff seemed a bit unaware of the day's activities, which was a little disappointing.

とても開放感のある開けたカフェで体験をしました。
BGMもガンガンに流れていて厳かな雰囲気ではなく普通のカフェという感じです。
でも入ってすぐ目の前に仏像があるのはお寺感あります。
川崎にあるお寺のご住職が作り方を丁寧に教えて頂けます。
世間話等を交えて話して下さりとても話しやすい気さくな方でした。
1人¥1500~¥2000で念珠＆ドリンクまで付いてたのでとてもお得だと思います。

ただ1つ残念なのはカフェの店員さんがあまり当日のワークを把握してない感じがしたのが少し残念に思いました。

I participated with my daughter. The explanations were thorough, with demonstrations and practice, and the instruction was very careful. I was able to create a simple wisteria pattern quite well, so I got a bit carried away and tried the bellflower, which was difficult and I struggled. However, when I had trouble, I could ask for help, and in the end, they made adjustments for me. When I placed it on the black cloth under the light, I was amazed by its beauty. I had a lot of fun concentrating for two hours.

娘と二人で参加しました。
説明もお手本を見せながら、練習もあり、丁寧教えて頂きました。簡単な藤の花の模様が、けっこう上手くできたので、調子に乗って桔梗に挑戦したら、難しく苦戦しました。でも、困った時に聞きながら、最後は、お直しもしてくださり、ライトの当たった黒い布の上に置くと、素晴らしさに感激しました。2時間集中して楽しかったです。

Kintsugi Workshop in Tokyo: Repair Pottery with Gold at Kuge Crafts Studio

Calm and welcoming introduction to Kintsugi

Reviewed by: Connie

This was the most calming and grounding experience, a total contradiction to a typical day in Tokyo. Yoshiko and Yoshiichiro welcome you into the small street facing studio with home made cake, local treats and freshly brewed tea. Occasionally there is the odd call out from their cat that makes the experience so homely and real that you know you are getting a legitimate immersion into a part of Japanese art and culture.

The class is hands on and Yoshiko makes sure you leave with all the tools you need to keep practicing after you leave the class. She also gives you insights into Japanese culture that are inaccessible to the average visitor.

If you are someone who likes to get under the skin of a city or country, and you like to get off the tourist track to truly start to get your foot into the door of what a culture is about, this is the class for you.

An amazing and unique experience!

Reviewed by: kaywaiian

We had a magnificent time with our instructor for the food class! He was instructive, patient, and made the experience the best it could be. You can really tell he loves what he does, and teaching people about it. If we ever come back to Japan, we will definitely be taking another class.

I also want to note: these classes can be taken in English is need be. Our instructor apologized for his “bad English” - and then spoke perfect English the whole time. I was like “no- WE apologize for OUR bad Japanese >_<“

Great fun for all ages. I took my husband and his guy friend, and they loved it more than they thought. Just 10/10 experience.

Amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Lexi

I booked this experience for my boyfriend's birthday as he's a big fan of plastic food, so we wanted to learn how to make it and try it out for ourselves. If you're worried that this experience may only be fun for kids or families, we're both in our early 30s and had a really fun time of it!

The owner told us about the history of the craft while he taught us how to make our plastic fried rice, and it was really interesting to learn about!

They have a lot of fun trinkets and jewelry for sale as well that make amazing gifts for friends and family!

Would highly recommend this experience for anyone interested.

Great and unique experience making sample food. Booking online was straight-forward and easy as well :) Do note that to purchase additional in-store merchandise (sample food made by the store eg keychains) require cash, which we unfortunately did not bring. Otherwise, the course itself was engaging, straight-forward, and fun even for adults. Would definitely recommend!

Excellent and fun activity

Reviewed by: Renee

Looking for something to do other than visiting temples, sightseeing, eating, or shopping? Show off your creative talent (you really dont need any!) by making your own sample food. This is a great family activity geared to all ages and skill levels and you learn a bit about the history of sample food. Keep in mind that you are not making samples from scratch. Rather some items such as the noodles and toppings are pre-made and you're basically molding them and placing the items to create your final product. Our group created different items - sushi candle, fried rice, Ramen and pizza clock - and everyone was thrilled with our creations! What a great souvenir to take home. Staff was very friendly, kind, supportive, and more importantly, patient in helping all of us. Try it out for yourself!
