For this matte white porcelain vase which was accidentally broken, I decided to use in addition to 24-carat gold kintsugi a particularly difficult and delicate technique: the inlay of beetle elytra.
Here is the mystery ingredient of this restoration: finely chiseled elytra, encrusted in natural black lacquer.
This technique requires careful and patient work. with an additional difficulty in the case of this piece: the surface is curved and not flat, which makes the inlay all the more complex.
