Zurich 4-Class Package
POJ Studio freut sich, die Kunst der traditionellen Keramikreparatur zu teilen – mit dem ersten europäischen Pop-up in Zürich, Schweiz. Für 4 Wochen veranstaltet POJ Studio Kintsugi-Kurse bei Limited Stock, einem zentral gelegenen Homeware-Geschäft mit Fokus auf handgefertigte Produkte.
Vom 5. Juni bis zum 3. Juli bieten wir eine Auswahl an Kursen an – von Einführungssessions bis hin zu 2-tägigen Intensiverlebnissen.
Dieses Angebot umfasst 4 × 2-stündige Sessions mit einem Reparaturexperten und gibt euch die Möglichkeit, eure Kintsugi-Fähigkeiten zu vertiefen und eure Reparatur Schritt für Schritt voranzutreiben.
Bitte beachtet, dass die Kurse einmal pro Woche stattfinden, mit mindestens einer Woche Abstand zwischen den einzelnen Sessions. Traditionelles Kintsugi verwendet natürlichen Urushi-Lack, der Zeit zum Aushärten benötigt, bevor der nächste Reparaturschritt beginnen kann. Diese Wartezeit ist ein wesentlicher Bestandteil des Prozesses und gewährleistet die Stabilität und Langlebigkeit der Reparatur.
Kursplan
- 1. Kurs: Zusammenfügen der Bruchstücke mit Mugi
- 2. Kurs: Mugi säubern, Lücken mit Sabi-Urushi versiegeln
- 3. Kurs: Schleifen und erneutes Auftragen von Sabi-Urushi
-
4. Kurs: Sabi schleifen und roten Urushi auftragen, mit Demonstration der Goldapplikation
- Bitte beachtet, dass der letzte Kurs eine halbe Stunde länger dauern wird, um die abschließenden Schritte der Reparatur zu demonstrieren.
Da zwischen den Sessions Aushärtungszeit benötigt wird, können die vier Einheiten nicht an aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen oder innerhalb derselben Woche stattfinden. Das Programm eignet sich daher am besten für Gäste, die in der ersten Woche des Zürich-Pop-ups an der ersten Session teilnehmen können (Freitag, 5. Juni oder Samstag, 6. Juni).
Falls eine Teilnahme in der ersten Woche nicht möglich ist, empfehlen wir gerne eine unserer Einzelsessions als Alternative.
Bei Fragen zur Terminplanung stehen wir euch gerne unter experiences@pojstudio.com zur Verfügung.
POJ Studio is excited to share the art of traditional ceramic repair with our first European pop-up in Zurich, Switzerland. For 4 weeks, POJ Studio will be hosting kintsugi classes at Limited Stock, a centrally located homewares store with a focus on handcrafted goods.
From June 5th to July 3rd we will be offering a range of classes from introductory sessions, to 2-day immersive experiences.
This plan includes 4 × 2-hour sessions with a repair professional, giving you the opportunity to deepen your kintsugi skills and continue progressing with your repair step by step.
Please note that these classes are held once per week, with at least one week between each session. Traditional kintsugi uses natural urushi lacquer, which needs time to cure before the next stage of the repair can begin. This waiting period is an essential part of the process and ensures the strength and longevity of the repair.
Class itinerary
- 1st Class: Rejoining broken pieces with mugi
- 2nd Class: Cleaning mugi, sealing gaps with sabi urushi
- 3rd Class: Sanding and reapplying sabi urushi
- 4th class: Sanding sabi and applying red urushi, with gold application demonstration
- *Please note the last class will run a half-hour late in order to demonstrate the last steps of the repair.
Because of this curing time, the four sessions cannot be scheduled on consecutive days or within the same week. The program is therefore best suited for guests who will be able to attend the first session in the first week of the Zurich pop-up (Friday June 5th or Saturday June 6th).
If you are not able to attend a session in the first week, we would be happy to recommend one of our single-session experiences instead.
Please contact experiences@pojstudio.com if you have any questions about scheduling.

Urushi
While urushi can cause skin irritation in its raw, wet state, once it has completely cured and hardened, it is absolutely food safe. Urushi is one of the most durable natural materials and thus extremely well-suited for environmentally-responsible, long-lasting repair of ceramics, porcelain, and other wares.
I will be aware of my surroundings. If I accidentally come in contact with urushi, I will massage the affected area well with any plant-based oil straight away to remove urushi from my skin. I understand that POJ Studio is not liable for any adverse reactions caused by urushi.
Age requirement
The minimum age to participate in the workshop is 13 years old.
