Title

We are taught that once something is broken, it loses its value. But what happens when we stop hiding our cracks and start highlighting them instead?

Kintsugi is the centuries-old Japanese craft of repairing broken ceramics with a striking seam of gold. It is rooted in the Zen philosophy of wabi-sabi: the belief that there's beauty in imperfection, impermanence and incompleteness. Kintsugi accepts the break as part of the object’s true story rather than trying to erase it.

Discover the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold and explore the philosophy that shaped it. Gently break, reassemble and restore ceramic pieces using modern Kintsugi techniques, transforming cracks and fractures into part of the final piece rather than something to hide.

What's A 'Trove Experience'

As our cities swell, we tend to do fewer and repetitive things for recreation. With Trove, you get to break the monotony and explore fresh activities in your city, meet like-minded souls, and develop a deeper appreciation for the finer things.

Most of us likely resonate with terms like 'workshops' or 'events.’ What makes these an 'experience' is the energies we put into scouring the right artists, creators and storytellers, to ensure that each Trove Experience leaves you enriched with meaningful moments to collect for your very own treasure trove.

FAQs

Is this experience beginner-friendly?

This experience is beginner-friendly. Our experts will take you through everything you need to know, making it a fun and accessible experience for everyone.

How far in advance should I book the spot?

It's best if you book online well in advance. Since we work in small groups and on a first come, first serve basis, last minute availability may be limited.

Will I receive certifications for attending the experience?

The experiences we offer are one-time, 2-3 hour formats that cover the introductory aspects of the topic. We don't provide courses or official certifications; the idea is to simply discover something new in an engaging manner, and in the company of like-minded people.

Will I get a discount for this experience?

We don’t typically do discounts, since our experiences are designed for intimate groups with small margins. However, we do promise to pack enough value in terms of what you will experience.

What is the minimum age for the experience?

Our experiences are designed for adults, given the nature of the activities and the level of focus and assistance they require. However, children aged 8 and above may join when accompanied by an adult/guardian. In such cases, two paid spots must be booked, one for the child and one for the accompanying adult.

Are vegan or gluten-free options available?

We currently do not offer vegan or gluten-free options.
