Traditional crafts have been passed on by generations and carry the wealth of other times. They tell stories about how we live and who we are, carry the artisans frequencies and skills forward, and store ancestral knowledge. Many traditional crafts are of very high frequency, often strongly rooted in nature due to the choice of materials and motives, the ways of producing the items, and their connection with times during which the frequency on this planet was high. Most of these art forms have been marginalised and become associated with narratives of inferiority in contrast to machine-driven sophistication and a Europe-centered global economy. Yet many crafts survived, are now revived, combined with new technologies and ideas, and still carry the same high frequencies as they always have, esp. when practiced by authentic artisans of which there are many.

Embodying true sustainability, traditional crafts typically use abundant locally available materials and knowledge, and are often carried out by indigenous people who hold the practical and historical skills and stories surrounding these arts. This is a treasure to be cherished, reciprocated fairly and acknowledged in its wholeness. The respectful treatment of such crafts, their artisans and communities is still a rare sight in an industrialised world centered around money. Many indigenous skills and crafts are endangered, and need support within the context of the cultures from which they emerge. Unfortunately there is a tendency of artisanal work to be sold at luxury markets, rendering it inaccessible for the majority of people, perpetuating inequality. Hopefully ongoing changes in our trading systems will eliminate such exclusiveness.
