We have an amazing heritage of craft and tradesmanship in the UK. In years gone by, various skills and techniques were passed down through families or guilds keeping traditional arts and crafts alive and healthy. However, as the industrial revolution kicked in, the need for beautiful, bespoke, useful everyday items started to wane and with them the loss of livelihoods for artisans.
At Shambino, arts and crafts workshops remain high on the agenda. The satisfaction a person gets from using their own hands and creativity to fashion objects is second to none – it soothes the soul and feeds the mind.
