What are core values?
Show answer
The movement was built on a clear set of values. It prized handcraft: objects made by skilled craftspeople rather than machines. It demanded honesty in materials and construction, using materials truthfully and letting the method of making show, rather than disguising cheap work with fake ornament. It believed in the dignity of the maker, seeing craft as fulfilling rather than alienating work.
