Kintsugi isn’t an Okinawan craft, but Naha has taken to it, and a workshop is a good use of a rainy afternoon. Real urushi lacquer takes weeks to cure, so short sessions often use quicker modern materials; the accessory versions turn shards into earrings you can wear out the door.
Discover the art of Kintsugi in Okinawa with a hands-on workshop, blending tradition, mindfulness, and creativity. Perfect for those seeking a unique cultural experience.
