Kintsugi (金継ぎ), "Golden Samurai" katana, decoration

Collector's Katana with screen-printed black saya (鞘) (samurai and calligraphic kanjis), brown braiding


My master was nicknamed the "Golden Samurai", in reference to his resilience and ability to transform his wounds into new passes at arms. He lived between the XIVᵗʰ and XVᵗʰ centuries, during the period when Japan gave birth to this art of repairing broken objects by highlighting his scars with gold powder.
Symbolically, Kintsugi embodies a philosophy that associates the object's past, its history - with any accidents it may have experienced - and its renewal, its capacity to be reborn. And it's true that my master has risen many times from the battles he has waged. He wasn't always victorious, but his technique and knowledge were refined over time, creating his legend. My scabbard (鞘 saya) is thus decorated with several calligraphic kanjis and the silhouette of my samurai master, enveloped in a golden yellow aura. My role today is to remind people that "the only failures are those from which you learn nothing".

"Kintsugi - The art of resilience, Céline Santini


Repairing wounds - learning resilience - the metaphor for the Japanese art of ceramic repair using gold solder. Kintsugi, which literally means "golden joint", is an ancestral Japanese art that invites you to repair a broken object by highlighting its scars with gold powder. Often seen as a form of art therapy to support resilience, the art of kintsugi follows a slow and meticulous ceremonial, requiring patience and concentration. Day by day, week by week, step by step, the object is cleaned, dressed, healed and sublimated.
Enriched with stories, advice and practical exercises, this book accompanies you in your healing process, whether your wounds are physical or emotional, with the various traditional steps involved in making a kintsugi.
Kintsugi, the art of resilience is translated into 10 languages and has received numerous awards: the Professional Resilience Award, the Restart Awards jury prize, the Manpower-HEC Literary Prize nugget, the Nautilus Book Award Golden award, the Nautilus Book Award Golden award and is a finalist in 2 categories for the Independent Audiobook Awards in the USA.
