About this Event
Spend a relaxed afternoon on Saturday 31st July with Ruinart Champagne on the private mezzanine at Saxon + Parole learning the art of Kintsugi; the age-old Japanese art form of repairing broken ceramics by mending the broken areas with lacquer, dusted with a warm golden brass powder, to create a finished product that is considered more beautiful than when it was whole.
The ancient technique is a celebration of the emerging ‘Wabi Sabi’ aesthetic, of appreciating the beauty that is evident in the broken or imperfect.
Tickets include a broken ceramic to create your own Kintsugi piece, a flute of Ruinart Blanc de Blancs - the signature cuvée of the House, alongside a delectable array of dishes from Saxon + Parole.
There are two workshop times to choose from, to ensure an intimate and hands on experience with Yuka O'Shannessy from Public Record's guidance.
With no previous Kintsugi experience required, this is the perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends, finding beauty in the most unlikely places.
Enjoy Ruinart Responsibly.
