Why England’s Last Traditional Lacemaker Is Fighting for Survival | WSJ Coveted
Leavers lace is prized by dressmakers and designers as the world’s highest quality machine-made lace, so refined it takes a magnifying glass to distinguish it from handmade material. High-end fashion houses like Christian Dior, Gucci and Burberry have used the lace, and Kate Middleton’s wedding dress featured the lace for the Royal Wedding. But only a few factories still make it, and they’re facing increasingly strong headwinds to get by.
WSJ visited the Cluny Lace factory in England to see the meticulous process that could soon disappear.

WSJ's Coveted highlights the precision and process behind expertly-crafted cult favorites - from the pencils beloved by Disney animators to the sushi knives breaking thousands of years of Japanese tradition. These stories show how the smallest everyday items can be transformed into the ultimate luxury splurge.

Why Sushi Chefs Pay Up to $20K for These Knives | WSJ Coveted
Переглядів 306 тис.Місяць тому
Japanese sushi knives have been meticulously crafted for over 600 years. Traditional knives are made of high carbon steel to be able to slice or cut sashimi without breaking the fibers. But one knifemaker, Yusuke Sawada, questions if the tradition has reached its peak. WSJ explains how Nenohi Cutlery used materials no one thought would work and found cult status as knife artisans among top sush...

    In a situation like this to preserve the art form, the Gov can intervene by allocating funds for internship to students local or foreign whoever is interested to pursue. People need to participate in local issues, elections, stand up for those who don't have a voice or power. Sadly people spend their time on things that carry no value. Thanks for sharing this wonderful art form.

    OKay so I tried to go buy some because that's my first go to whenever I see these types of videos. First of all they need to have a functional website, it's pretty buggy. Second of all they need to sell lace by the meter online. Thirdly they need to hire a person to learn over from the cardboard punch guy. For a business to thrive you need to be adaptable and focus on sucession planing and make your product accessible to the masses. No point whining. They live in England for g's sake, not in some war ravaged city with bad internet and import/export restrictions, if they put the effort to make it accessible they can do it.

      Those cards are essentially binary codes,using AI would be an overkill. Putting aside that issue, when we are talking about preserving the practice, we don't just talk about continue producing it, but the process of it. Of teaching the muscle memories of the fingers punching the holes, of maintaining the history of the machine, of making lace patterns with organic detailed shapes that was trying to replicate handmade ones from their past.

    As an F&B consultant, I'm kind of skeptical that chefs would pay that much for a knife. I know they strive for perfection, but the return on investment for this is really minimal. There is a drastic drop in benefits vs. costs here. Typical restaurant knives cost $20-30 from Victorinox. An ultra professional knife would cost like $300, but investing in a $20,000? That sounds more of a collector's item than a work tool.

      how about if we add in there clout, dependability, precision, comfort, and enjoyment? Some of those things are rather intangible. High luxurious services and goods go beyond tangible economic measures. Is it necessary? i dont think anyone starting their business cares to buy a knife that expensive. But a knife at $20K is the same as someone who buys a Patek or Rolex. For making only 100-200 a year, i don't see why this business and the consumers arent reasonable and passionate and totally validated for wanting something like this.
