Chipppendale Graduate School Show
We took a little time off to go to the 2023 Chippendale School graduate show of furniture designed and built by the students in Gifford, East Lothian where a friend was exhibiting.
Absolutely magnificent design and craftsmanship on show and running until June 17th. Entry is free via Eventbrite

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.

> ... quite relevant to today’s problems was the sharp decline in what we call “high culture,” reading of classics and contemporary literature by the people who were called the factory girls in Lowell and by craftsmen and other workers. #Craftsmen would hire somebody to read to them while they were working because they were interested and had libraries... “Those who work in the mills ought to own them,” not have the status of machines

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

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. #Craftsmen and #Craftswomen 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. 🙂
