"There's a crack in everything, that's where the light comes in." (Leonard Cohen)
Golden Joinery is an initiative by the fashion collective Painted. The project sprang from the ancient Japanese repair technique Kintsugi, where broken pottery was mended with gold. Beauty and value was added by the reparation. Touched by the love of this kind of imperfect beauty, Painted translate this ancient principle to fashion. They have a strong wish to connect people more with the clothes they wear. Kintsugi - A Japanese repairing technique for broken pottery.
