"Simple gold lacquer" is perfect for travelers with limited time, and even beginners can participate with confidence. By decorating the broken parts as "scenery", you can create original works full of individuality. However, since the works made in this experience are simplified versions, they cannot be used for eating or drinking, but they are perfect for interior art that can be enjoyed as ornamental or accessory trays. Vessels that you repair yourself and add your own design will become a special one-of-a-kind item, and by displaying them in your home or office, they will become wonderful art pieces that will decorate your space!
