Wabi Sabi

The art of honoring the beauty in imperfection.

We do not need to create intentional imperfections but rather we need to accept that flaws are unavoidable.

The legend of Wabi Sabi dates back to the sixteenth century when the Japanese tea ceremony faced a big shift. Perfect dishes were replaced with chipped bowls, and people drank from worn and aged glasses. They coined this practice, Wabi Sabi.
