Craft
A craft is a
skill, especially involving practical
arts. It may refer to a
trade or particular art.The term is often used as part of a longer word (and also in the plural). For example, a craft-brother is a fellow worker in a particular trade and a craft-guild is, historically, a
guild of workers in the same trade. See some further examples below.The term is often used to describe the family of artistic practices within the
decorative arts that traditionally are defined by their relationship to functional or utilitarian products (such as
sculptural forms in the vessel tradition) or by their use of such natural media as
wood,
clay,
glass,
textiles, and
metal. Crafts practiced by independent artists working alone or in small groups are often referred to as
studio craft. Studio craft includes
studio pottery,
metal work,
weaving,
wood turning and other forms of
wood working,
glass blowing, and
glass art.
