Sadly, there are many artisanal crafts that are dying out across the world, like we saw with the art of making ballet shoes in this video.
However, artisans like master clog maker Jeremy Atkinson are passing on their knowledge to ensure that ancient crafts live on for generations to come.
In this clip, Jeremy and his apprentice, JoJo Wood explain the importance of keeping crafts like clog-making alive. “Is it of any worth?” he asks in the video. “Well, once it’s gone, it’s gone.”
Enough said.
