Thanks to Naj odak and Mike Zeller and BBC News Online for the Headline
Believe it or not a “Red List” of endangered crafts was created in 2017 to highlight skills that were being lost.
Glass Crystal Cutting was one of those crafts, unfortunately due to the recent rise in energy costs, a Company who employs these highly skilled crafts people has had to close down one of their furnaces, reduce people’s hours and cut non- essential staff, including the CEO who is now putting what would have been his salary towards keeping the business going. What would William Morris have thought?
The admirable CEO has said that there are contracts to keep the business going and that hopefully they can ride the storm. I wish them well.
Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
