壊れたものを修復することは、新しいものを購入する必要なく、長く使い続ける良い方法です。なかでも「金継ぎ」という壊れた器を修復する技術のある日本は特に有名です。ひび割れや欠けた部分に金を流し込むことで、その物が経験した摩耗や損傷を美しい特徴に変えるのです。
あなたが修復した物の例はありますか？どのように修複しましたか？

Extract from a huffpost.com –
“This new phase of life required a different mindset. Now that everything had blown up and I was on a new path ― whether I wanted to be or not ― I wondered, what if I treated aging as an adventure, like traveling to a new land? Who knew which way I’d go or what I’d discover? Imagine how glittery I’d be if I filled in my cracks like the Japanese tradition of kintsugi, patching broken pottery with gold and silver. Imagine if instead of averting my eyes, I looked at my future ― however different it was now going to be ― with awe.”

Comentário: meu último reparo foi de uma tigela de cerâmica trazida de Sorrento (Itália). No transporte para casa, a tigela quebrou em pequenos pedaços. A técnica utilizada foi usar a cola super-bonder (única técnica que eu conheço!)

Reply in Italian:
Mi piace tanto riparare la bigiotteria. Una volta riparai una mia catenina lunga agganciando gli anelli con un piccolo orecchino a cerchio che avevo trovato. CI legai un nastrino rosso e ci misi anche un fiore di seta. Mi sembrava veramente molto elegante.
English translation of the reply:
I quite like to repair broken fashion jewellery. Once I repaired a long chain necklace by joining the links with a small hoop earring I had found. I also embellished it with a red ribbon and a silk flower. It looked rather stylish.
