About this listen
Traditional crafts often carry centuries of history, yet many face extinction due to modern industrialization and changing lifestyles. Warosoku, the Japanese handmade candle, is no exception. In this episode, we explore the challenges Warosoku artisans face today, from declining demand and an aging workforce to the struggles of the specialized division of labor (分業制).
How can we preserve this unique craft? What lessons can we learn from other traditional industries that have adapted to modern times? Join us as we discuss the future of Warosoku and the importance of keeping craftsmanship alive. Come join us on our journey.
