The 3 Fundamental Recipes

The guide details the three essential preparations used in traditional Japanese kintsugi. Each recipe is presented with precise measurements in grams and ratios validated by workshop practice.

  • Mugi-urushi: Traditional glue made from ki-urushi lacquer and flour (wheat or rice). Used to assemble broken ceramic fragments.
  • Sabi-urushi: Filling putty made of lacquer, tonoko powder, and water. Used to fill cracks and gaps in the material.
  • Kokuso-urushi: Reconstruction preparation with lacquer, tonoko, and wood sawdust. Suitable for major structural repairs.

Gluten-Free Versions

All recipes include alternatives to wheat flour. Measurements with rice flour are provided to allow people allergic or intolerant to gluten to practice kintsugi safely.

Safety Protocol

Urushi lacquer contains urushiol, an allergenic resin. The guide explains the precautions to take when handling it, the necessary protective equipment, and first aid steps in case of skin contact.
