Respect the craft of the elder

We’re losing our sense of respect for genuine, handmade craft. In an age of online customizing, 3D-printers and web shops, we’ve effectively erased the practical need to be handy. If something breaks down, we’ll just get a new one. Family heirlooms are consigned to the darkest corner of increasingly crowded storage-units, and replaced by the generic stuff this week’s homestyling-bloggers tells us is “it” right now. But in losing the ability and pride in craftsmanship, are we losing a part of ourselves?
