If you don't mind my asking, where do you get staple repairs (or kintsugi repairs) done? I've heard of Nissan Haque who I think is based in New York city, but have no experience personally. Otherwise, I assume that these kinds of repairs are mostly done in Asia and without an online or Western-facing presence.
I'm asking both because I'm curious, and also because someone in the postal system has destroyed a nice old bowl that I got... Fortunately, not a teapot.

It is a blessing and a curse. My Yixing addiction grows every time I find another old pot.
I actually haven’t had any of my pots fixed yet. Nissan is the only person I know of doing staple repairs in US.
