The Sailor earring is developed with the idea to look for boundaries of what we value. It plays with elements of the traditional Dutch sailor earring in combination with the traditional Japanese Kintsugi and Arita-yaki ceremics technique. In the Arita-yaki technique you find a lot of similarities with the Dutch Delfts Blauw and in the print and colours we search for the boundaries of difference and similarities between these techniques. With this Sailor earring we choose for the gold of packaging instead of the high precious gold leaf that is normally used for the technique Kintsugi. With this choice we want to play with the value of gold that has been created in our cultures. Also RA! is always searching for alternatives for the waste fulll and unfair industry of precious metals, mining and minerals. 
 
These techniques can also be used to repair your broken products such as a vases, jewellery pieces etc. We provide a repair service that with these beautiful ancient techniques will bring your beloved items a second life.
