Zurich - The Rehearsal (1h)
POJ Studio is excited to share the art of traditional ceramic repair with our first European pop-up in Zurich, Switzerland. For 4 weeks, POJ Studio will be hosting kintsugi classes at Limited Stock, a centrally located homewares store with a focus on handcrafted goods.
From June 5th to July 3rd we will be offering a range of classes from 4-class packages where you can repair a personal piece to 2-day immersive experiences.
This 1-hour session is a one-off workshop for those who don't have much time but would like to learn about kintsugi and its place in Japanese culture and take home a "repaired" ware.
Please contact experiences@pojstudio.mom if you would like to request a different time and date or have any questions.

Urushi
While urushi can cause skin irritation in its raw, wet state, once it has completely cured and hardened, it is absolutely food safe. Urushi is one of the most durable natural materials and thus extremely well-suited for environmentally-responsible, long-lasting repair of ceramics, porcelain, and other wares.
I will be aware of my surroundings. If I accidentally come in contact with urushi, I will massage the affected area well with any plant-based oil straight away to remove urushi from my skin. I understand that POJ Studio is not liable for any adverse reactions caused by urushi.
Age requirement
The minimum age to participate in the workshop is 13 years old.
