A craft or trade is a endeavor or a profession that requires particular skills and knowledge of capable work. In a historical sense, particularly the middle Ages and earlier, the term is usually applied to people occupied in small-scale production of goods, or their maintenance, for example by tinkers. The traditional term craftsman is nowadays often replaced by artisan and rarely by craftsperson (craftspeople).

Historically, the more specialized crafts later than tall value products tended to concentrate in urban centers and formed guilds. The talent required by their professions and the compulsion to be continually operating in the clash of goods often demanded a generally complex level of education, and craftsmen were usually in a more privileged point of view than the peasantry in societal hierarchy. The households of craftsmen were not as self-sufficient as those of people engaged in agricultural take action and fittingly had to rely on the squabble of goods. Some crafts, especially in areas such as pottery, woodworking, and the various stages of textile production, could be adroit on a part-time basis by those also functioning in agriculture, and often formed part of village life.

Once an apprentice of a craft had the end his apprenticeship, he would become a journeyman searching for a area to set going on his own shop and create a living. After he set up his own shop, he could next call himself a master of his craft.

This system of a stepwise contact to mastery of a craft, which includes the obtainment of a definite amount of education and the learning of skills, has survived in some countries of the world until today. But crafts have undergone deep structural changes before and during the period of the Industrial Revolution. The addition production of goods by large-scale industry has limited crafts to market segments in which industry's modes of dynamic or its mass-produced goods would not or cannot satisfy the preferences of potential buyers. Moreover, as an repercussion of these changes, craftspeople today increasingly make use of semi-finished components or materials and get used to these to their customers' requirements or demands and, if necessary, to the environments of their customers. Thus, they participate in a definite distancing of labour with industry and craft.

The term crafts is often used to picture the associates of artistic practices within the associates decorative arts that traditionally are defined by their membership to in force or utilitarian products (such as sculptural forms in the vessel tradition) or by their use of such natural media as wood, clay, ceramics, glass, textiles, and metal.

The Arts and Crafts goings-on originated in Britain during the late 19th century and was characterized by a style of trimming reminiscent of medieval times. The primary player joined later than the bustle is William Morris, whose produce an effect was reinforced in the manner of writings from John Ruskin. The bustle placed a tall importance upon the mood of craftsmanship even if emphasizing the importance for the arts to contribute to economic reform.
