陶庫の金継ぎ
陶器は使い続けることで、価値が高まる。
自然の素材から生まれる陶器は使用を重ねていくことで、うつわの表情が変化します。
様々な道具の中でも、自然の要素と人間の創造性から生まれる陶器は他の道具以上に人間の感情が宿る道具であると私たちは考えます。
使い続けることで、それぞれの愛着や美的価値、使用価値が高まることは陶器の大きな魅力です。
大切な人にもらった器、思い出の器など、人と道具の間にはひとりひとりに物語があります。
使い込んだ時間こそが価値であり、道具と人が織りなす時間は新品を買っても手に入れることはできません。

陶器を「修理する」という選択肢
道具は壊れてしまったら新しい物を買い替えて使う。
現代の生活では当たり前となり、企業としても買い替えを望むことが多いでしょう。
陶庫では愛着を持った道具との関係性を大切にしていただきたいという思いから、「修理をする」という選択肢もご提案をさせていただきます。
古来より日本に伝わる金継ぎで割れた陶器をつなぎ合わせてお客様へお戻しいたします。
陶器において割れることも魅力のひとつと捉え道具との時間を豊かに、大切に過ごして頂きたい。
私たちはそのような想いで陶器を扱っております。
*お客様の器の状態に合わせてご対応をさせて頂きますので、ヒアリングの後に修理が可能か判断をさせて頂きます。
