Using a traditional Japanese “kanna” hand plane, you’ll shape your chopsticks from scratch, smooth the surface by hand, and finish them with natural oil under the guidance of the instructor. For an even more personal touch, you can optionally engrave your name or a special message on the ends of your chopsticks, creating a one-of-a-kind souvenir from your time in Japan.

Create a ring that no one else in the world has. Discover a collection of vintage coins from different countries and eras, pick the one that speaks to you, and turn it into your very own ring. You’ll experience the entire process yourself — working with professional tools to shape the coin, form the ring, and add the finishing touches. Our instructors will be there to guide you throughout, so it’s perfect even if you’ve never made jewelry before. Every coin is different, which means every ring is different. The details and character of the original coin remain visible, giving your finished piece a look and story of its own. It’s more than something to buy in Kyoto — it’s something you create here. Take home a one-of-a-kind ring, made by you, and a memory of Kyoto you can wear wherever you go.

Instead of hiding imperfections, Kintsugi celebrates them as part of an object’s story — a unique Japanese way of seeing beauty in imperfection and change. With step-by-step guidance from a friendly instructor, you’ll learn the basic techniques of Kintsugi while also discovering the history, meaning, and philosophy behind this fascinating Japanese craft. No previous experience is needed, so anyone can enjoy creating their own piece. One of the most special parts of this experience is that every finished piece is different.
