MASTER CRAFTSMANSHIP a word seldom used today. Wood Furniture was made the same way, out of REAL WOOD not Particle Board or Laminated Wood. Which is why they become ‘Antiques’ instead of land fill.
@@mike2228 It's **rare** most of our "furniture" is particle board from Chinese slave factories. The price point of hard wood craftsman furniture is INFINITELY higher than when it was just "regular furniture". Sadly.
Очень интересно！Смотрю и ощущаю это время ,как время тотального счастья.Веет детством от фильма.Жизнь размеренная,ценность человека и его труда чувствуется.
Thank you for a brilliant video, of Wedgwood's History to the incredible talented team that produce these amazing wares. I am a potter so I know just what goes into the process from a ball of clay into a masterpiece. I think unless you've been a potter, you'd never realise all the hours of very talented people to produce Wedgwood. TEAM work always prevails. Excellent. This comment is way out of time, because I only discovered it today LOL ONLY 8 years out of date though :)
The accuracy with which they are doing and the perfection they have achieved is absolutely commendable and replicating that would be the difficult part
I'm a lover of Wedgwood's crafted ceramics, I use a Queensware cup and saucer every day on my home desk (it's in this video!) . I'm glad to see we're still employing the same techniques today, still with human craftsmanship.
The employees make it look so easy. But, I know it takes a lot of time and effort to learn their trade. I love my jasperware Wedgewood. Both the pieces handed down a newer ones I collected.
Womderful to see these skills as they were dying out. The masses could buy reasonable copies so much cheaper and the percentage of people who wanted and could afford the very highest quality fell and fell and became too small to make the industry viable as it was.
I don't know it's difficult...if that's a professional craftsman...please visit Indian temples ....our ancestors carved on stone that kind of statues ....and many wonders....m
They must have bee very skilled at running a company. Because in 2009 the comp[any was put into receivership and it was not voluntary. Perhaps they got too carried away with their own importance
craftsmanship and quality that will never be repeated or replicated
What?
Wow, good alternative to time travel
The craftsmanship is absolutely amazing
Watching this it dawned on me that there is little room for beauty in the world today.
Your world is so small to think that way.
Mass produced cheap crap from China.
I have a single Wedgwood cup, but this film makes me want a complete set!
Очень интересные познавательные видео, спасибо вам за такой прекрасный архив!
Amazing! I love the way these highly skilled craftspeople almost seem like machines with their incredible precision & attention to detail.
I love my great grandmothers wedgewood. This is precision work
Wedgwood
Amazing good quality handmade to last years!!!

You can still buy handmade furniture

Very fascinating! Thank you for sharing this! It's just great!

Simply fantastic! Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing.
watching these old videos makes me feel cheated in some vague sense of the word. i wouldve liked to have experienced a world like this, i guess
In some ways

How wonderful!!! Love pottery. Love. Wedgwood
This is really great film
Enjoyed this video very much! Thank you
This was lovely, thank you for posting!
this is the father of modern work.
Computers and plastic ruined everything. We traded our humanity for convenience and efficiency.
Very beautiful Wedgwood beautiful colours
Watching this relaxes me greatly. Simpler times. I very much would of liked to live in an English village and travel the train to work at Wedgwood.

Какая красота!
God Bless 'em all!
Sad to think how prized and collected this once was, No market for this stuff any more in this Generation
Looking at these videos makes me think we haven't advanced much from the past technology
Facinating labour
so cool
Lovely
basically everyone is an expert at this craft to keep the assembly process even moving.
4:53. I have that vase and it’s original grate for stems.
Josiah Wedgwood was also notable for opposition to parliamentary eugenics bills.
Thank you!
Maravilhoso
Such a shame it's all gone .
teach for you old friend
sadly all gone now
They don’t make them like this anymore
"Your job sir, is to operate the giant Play-Dough® extruder machine."
3:34 I have had days like that.
What a wonderful masterpiece! Baby boomers are buying up all the qualities the next generation has! no drug abuse & weird body tattoos
From Wedgwood to Walmart...
Hate to see the electric bill if it was these days!!
I always get irrationally irritated that there isn't a letter "e" after the "g" in Wedgwood.
Infelizmente, esse modo de produção acabou no ocidente. Hoje é tudo chinês. Não admira o caos social que estamos vivendo.

9:12 Nixon!?
😂 good one 😂
I guarantee a-lot of those skills are gone for ever

Little known fact: After being discharged of the factory due to lead poisoning, the Wedgwood employees were replaced with Oompa Loompas in the 1960's.

and then cnc in the 90s

I had to laugh at the intro music; the same snippet of sprightly music that The Goodies later used as the background to their "gender education" film!
