The article focuses on kintsugi, aka kintsukoroi, the original, traditional way of repairing broken pottery. This tradition has been inspired by the uniqueness of Japanese Zen aesthetics and the concept of beauty. In order to analyze the topic, it is important, firstly, to summarise the distinguishing features of the ascetic beauty concept. The roots of this concept lie in the Japanese aesthetic tradition. This tradition significantly differs from the fundamental classic beauty ideals of the West. The natural character and simplicity of a pottery form acquires an exceptional aesthetic value, From the point of view of the supporters of the Japanese traditional aesthetics, the traces of past times on a pottery vessel enrich the object with new associations. The crack subconsciously reminds viewers of the constant earthquakes in Japan, eruptions of volcanoes, floods or ruthless and destructive wars. The beauty ideals so different from the ones of the Western culture have become exceptionally relevant in postmodern Western art, which has focused anew on the various, previously peripheral non-classical forms of aesthetics and art.
