Thank you as always for reading Artisan.
We are pleased to announce the launch of three new content series that take a multifaceted look at Japanese crafts through the lenses of skill, spirit, and the support behind its heritage.
In a time of rapid change, how does craft endure—and where is it headed?
To explore this question, we listened to the voices of those on the ground, visited the workshops where tradition lives on, and wove their words into stories.
Craft is not simply the act of “making things.”
It holds lives, communities, and the hands that sustain them.
At Artisan, we believe in telling the stories behind the skills with care and depth.
