would tolerate no admixture of the ordinaries which
fills our lives..' and '.. refined to a degree which
the lives of even the artistically educated are

are as old as Human History..........
They are now a means of producing aesthetically
appealing handmade objects in a world
dominated by mechanization and standardization.
Among the earliest basic crafts are:
basketry, weaving, straw-work and pottery
.... craftwork formed the basis of town

| ……for,
and this is at the root of the whole
matter, everything made by man's hands
has a form, which must be either beautiful
or ugly; Beautiful if it is in accord
with nature and helps her; Ugly if it
discordant with nature and thwarts her;
It cannot be indifferent..' |
