Endangered Crafts, Series 1

6 x 30 HD

Across the world, traditional crafts are at risk of disappearing. From Faroese boatbuilding and Scottish sporrans to English fans and pigments, Portuguese cowbells and American neon, host Tal Danai travels across three continents to meet the makers keeping vanishing artistry alive.

 

Bringing together historians, curators, artists and even Britain's Queen Camilla, the series celebrates the heritage at the heart of each craft and showcases skills shaped by generations of artisans. Our host steps right into the making process, learning first-hand how much patience, precision and accumulated knowledge lies behind each tradition.

 

In an increasingly digital world, Endangered Crafts reveals the richness held within a handmade object, as a living link to history, identity and place. This is a journey through inherited craftsmanship, to ultimately ask what else is lost if we allow centuries of mastery to disappear?
