The ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi is rooted in a philosophy that encourages acceptance and appreciation of wounds, failures, and imperfections. Instead of perceiving these flaws as shortcomings, kintsugi teaches us to see them as sources of strength and beauty. ALEXANDRA’s Kintsugi collections reinterpret this philosophy by choosing the white layer of the sardonic shell for its resemblance to ceramics. An irregular and branched engraving, highlighted with 24 kt golf leaf, is added to the surface representing a fracture and its refined transformation.
