The class was incredibly fun and informative, and taught by two very patient and knowledgeable instructors. They were welcoming, and immediately made us feel right at home. Neither my husband nor I are very creative, but they were very supportive and encouraging and we had a very fun afternoon. The activity itself was very soothing and relaxing. It was also very clear that they are very proud of their craft and hope to see people continue to try it at home, as they showed us the exact product to buy if we wanted to continue to practice. They even told us it would be OK if we reached out after the class if we had any questions, and to email them pictures of things we are working on should we try kintsugi at home. Highly, highly recommend this class :)

We loved getting out of the busy city going to a quiet neighborhood in Tokyo. As a potter, I loved comparing notes with our host. Learning the art of Kintsugi has always been a dream of mine. The hosts gave us a detailed list of everything we need to come home and do it on our own. A really great experience.

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our experience; the teacher was so friendly, patient and genuine, and we got to do so many steps when making the ramen bowl. It was not stressful at all, and we wish we had brought our parents along too. Also loved the wide variety of items we could purchase after! So much more meaningful buying from here than Donki / other places whom you don’t know who made them.
Thank you for visiting us from afar. I am happy to receive your compliments. I hope that the food sample experience becomes a good memory of Japan.
Please come visit us again when you visit Japan again.

Yoshiko sensei is so kind and a master at her craft. Loved learning from her and her husband in their little studio. She gave great pointers, where to buy supplies to continue the practice, and is very happy to answer any questions even in email afterwards. I brought a cracked teapot in hopes she could advise me on how to fix it, but she helped me fix it for a small fee during class! It was such a lovely way to spend an afternoon immersed in a Japanese artistry not known by many. Only tip is that it’s difficult to call an Uber at this location, may need to make sure to make other commute arrangements!

This was such an awesome experience. I learned so much and would take this again! The instructor spoke English and Japanese, was friendly, patient, and kind. I was able to choose a clear glass (I wanted a pink one but was told I could only choose clear sadly) and they had many additional options for an extra charge (also clear). They have stencils, or you are able to draw free hand on your glass. You are provided a piece of glass to practice on before you attempt your design. The setting was intimate with only 4 cutting machines (there were other studios that were larger on other floors) which I liked because it felt more personal. I didn't need glasses or an apron like I thought I might. You can take photos of your glass when you finish in a lit photo box which makes your pictures look amazing. The room was a little warm for me, but I brought a tiny hand fan with a stand and it was perfect. We were asked to remove our shoes and wear public slippers, so I recommend wearing socks.

I've now been to Yamato Sample twice and tried two different kits, and I can confidently say this is one of the most unique and fun experiences I've had on my trips to the country! This is a good place to both try your hand at crafting as well as learn a bit about techniques used to make realistic food.
The craftsmen that help you are, as you can imagine, incredibly knowledgeable and have a great sense of humor; additionally, they have a nice lil shop near the front that shows some of their more intricate works that are for sale. I have tons of friends that are constantly planning their own trips to Japan and this is one of the few places I always recommend to them.
Hello
Thank you for visiting us again.
We are very grateful to receive so many compliments.
Recently, we have had a large number of customers come from all over the world, and we are sure that they are enjoying themselves.
I would be happy if you had an enjoyable experience this time as well.

お兄さん1人で6人いっぺんに指導するのでどうしても待ちが発生しますが、説明は凄く丁寧で分かりやすく、不器用な自分でもそれっぽく作ることができました!
ガラスを削るとなると、どうしても割れないようにと怖々削りがちになりますが、思い切って力を入れた方が深く削れて良かったみたいです。コツが掴めればある程度思ったように削れたりもしますが、調子に乗って長く削りすぎると修正がきかないのでそこだけはご注意を。。。
自分は作りたいデザインを始めから決めてたのであまりチャレンジはしなかったですが、参加者の中には「せっかく来たのだから出来そうなものより作りたいものを!」と複雑なデザインにチャレンジする方も(サンプルは用意してあります)。
最後は出来上がった作品をキレイに磨いてもらって、ライティングしながらの写真撮影。キラキラしてとてもキレイで大満足でした。

This was a wonderful and insightful Kintsugi class. Yoshiko and Yoschiichiro made me feel very welcome, taught me a lot in a short amount of time (despite my very limited Japanese) and helped me repair a personal object I had brought. I feel well equipped to continue kintsugi at home now, but still look forward to another class next time I’m in Tokyo! There’s still so much to learn and I had such a nice time being part of their warm, peaceful community!

The kids didn’t know what to expect but afterwards they raved about this experience. They made the regular sized parfait and enjoyed choosing the decorations first with a sample parfait, then pouring in the silicon icecream and arranging the decorations. The man helping was very friendly and patient. It was great to have this experience which we probably couldn’t do anywhere else in the world!

Out of all of the activities we have done in Japan, this has turned to be the best one we have done! The owners are a married couple and both have been so nice and sweet. The whole activity is very immersive and we didn't notice that 2 hours have went by so fast! They also served us sweets and tea before starting and they were all so delicious! I even had 5 refills of the tea.
On our next trip to Japan, we will for sure come by again to see you!
Thank you very much for taking part in making our trip unforgetful.

台風直撃日に体験しましたが、幸い土砂降りのタイミングから外れていた為、お店に移動後、問題なく体験できました。先生のお姉さんに丁寧に教えて頂けます。自分の苦手な模様の削り方や、改善ポイントなども的確に指導して頂けるが有難かったです。練習しながら本番に挑めますし、難しい図案や格好良い図案なども教えて頂けます。
とても上手に褒めてくださるので、モチベーションも下がらず、集中して挑めます。残念ながら私は削りすぎてグラスに穴を開けてしまいましたが、もう一つやってみますかとご提案して下さいました。(時間の都合で諦めました)一緒に体験した妻はキチンと仕上げていましたので、無茶しなければ上手に作ることが出来ると思います。
穴は空きましたが、完成はしたので、サボテン鉢にでも活用しようと思います。が、悔しいのでリベンジしようと思います。ものづくりが好きな方はとても楽しめると思います。

Such a fun activity with my 16 year old daughter. We went to the studio and were pleasantly surprised to find out if was a personal lesson for just the two of us! Our teacher was so lovely and you could tell how passionate she was about her craft. She explained the whole process thoroughly and helped us if we needed it on each step. The packaging so we could transport our projects back home was also amazing. I did not expect to have that done for us either! Highly recommend if you're into arts and crafts!!
