Humade Kintsugi

Humade – the beauty of imperfection

Sometimes a break makes something more beautiful. That is precisely the idea behind Humade's designs. This Dutch design brand gives everyday objects a new story by bringing together sustainability, creativity, and meaning in products that invite you to look at use and value differently.

Humade gained international recognition with the New Kintsugi Repair Kit: a contemporary interpretation of the age-old Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics with gold. Instead of hiding damage, breaks are made visible and celebrated as part of an object's history.

With the New Kintsugi kits, you can give broken crockery, vases, or other cherished objects a second life. The characteristic gold, silver, copper, or bronze-colored lines turn an accident into something unique and personal. This creates an object that is not beautiful despite the break, but precisely because of it.

The philosophy behind Humade seamlessly aligns with the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi: appreciating imperfection, transience, and the story that traces of use bring. In a time when much is replaced, Humade consciously chooses to repair, preserve, and re-appreciate.

At SuperMatique, you will find Humade's original New Kintsugi Repair Kits – a special gift for creatives, design enthusiasts, and anyone who believes that not everything has to be perfect to be beautiful.
