The best article I’ve read about the medieval German Catholic carnival. Take the time to translate it out of Russian. Very informative and interesting. Great discussion in many ways.

There is a long history of hand carving mother of pearl shells into souvenirs in long before the creation of the state of Israel. This detailed scene is only about 4cm high. I collect them when I see them, they are a reminder of the work of the highly skilled that now struggle to survive in their own homeland.

This is a fascinating you tube channel. A young softly, spoken (American?) carpenter learning Japanese techniques. He explains to the viewer what he’s doing.

@suegww No-one quite appreciates how much time, effort and skill hand-crafting takes in these days of cheap (relatively) machine made products. and are undervalued.

@Marriedaviking Apropos of nothing... i thought you might appreciate a piece of my dad's ceramic art.

He likes to make tableaus of craftsmen plying their trades, but set about 100 years ago. 🙂
