Bernardaud, Kintsugi, Rouge Empereur salad plate

The Kintsugi dinnerware collection by Bernardaud is a masterful creation by Sarkis, a French-Armenian artist. Inspired by the 16th-century Japanese technique of Kintsugi, Sarkis has transformed the art of mending broken ceramics with gold-lacquered seams into an exquisite dinnerware design. Sarkis worked with the precision of a calligrapher in the workshops in Limoges, adorning each piece of fine porcelain with gold-infused repair marks in a single sitting. The Kintsugi collection by Bernardaud elevates everyday dining, offering a beautiful reminder of the elegance found within life's imperfections and the resilience they represent.
