    I've been to Mexico many times and have always enjoyed the hard work the indigenous people do w/their craft. I find it insulting that we, as tourists, always want to haggle w/works of art, but hard work, nevertheless. Their product sells for itself and it is beautiful; I like the blouses and shawls the Mayan women worked on and I also enjoyed the perfume making in India. God bless those people for their hard work and trying to feed their families.

    • @twentytwo138
      @twentytwo138 2 года назад +26

      I understand what you mean and yes it's a bit insulting, as a small business owner myself, i can confirm it's a pain in the a*s when a customer comes out of nowhere asking for a discount with no justified reason, especially when they're buying only 1 single item and it's cheap already. They make me laugh, and i suggest them buy 2 and they'll get a discount.
      But many countries in Asia, Middle East, South America (where they have poor areas with shops in the street, especially India) they created the haggling situation themselves. It's because they don't put price tags on display. They come up with a price on the spot, depending on who you are. Sometimes they charge much more if they think you're unfamiliar with real prices. And if you're not interested they start offering lots of solutions and discounts, they drop the price significantly and become persistent. Which is fine, they just want to sell afterall.
      But in my opinion a lot of things would be fixed with a price tag on display. People haggle less when there's a price, they don't feel scammed and they don't have to worry about overpaying. Customers have some sort of ''respect'' towards the seller, if the prices are already set. It's much easier to work with for both sides, and the seller's profit would remain the same. Better to sell 10 products at a standard price, then selling 5 products for much more, and 5 products for much less. No need for extreme haggling, and no risk of customer loss and disrespect.

    Many of these struggling people would find their lives changed entirely if they could only get into the American market. Americans will buy ANYTHING, and we're not afraid to pay a premium. Hearing that beautiful chest went for only $1200 just stunned me. If that was available in a local shop with a $5,000 price tag, nobody would even question the price and it would sell. I made a "personal chest" several years ago out of Cocobolo, Pink Ivory, and Bubinga. While it did have a pretty good amount of decoration, it was nowhere near the intricate design of that bone perfume chest, and mind sold for $5,000 and I got 4 more custom orders for the similar chests at same price. If that bone carving guy moved to America, I have little doubt he would be able to support his family with ease.

    • @cortezyvonne
      @cortezyvonne 2 года назад +1

      Very true! I was looking at a lot of these and thinking if they only put their products on the internet they would make a killing! Ive seen it myself. For example some woman went to Mx and on her way back to the states she recorded this man that sits and makes u hand made jewelry with ur name etc. She spoke to him and got his story on video. She uploaded it and it got so many views n thousands of people wanted to buy from him. She made a gofund me n she gave him $10,000 and gave him a notebook full of people who wanted orders. Enough work where he wouldn’t have to b sitting outside on the street anymore. They helped this man in the most incredible way.
      Ive also seen many examples like this where someone puts peoples work online and it takes off.
      Now a days its popular to be “ethnic” and people are buying up all types or artesanias. I have no doubt if someone were to facilitate a way for people to order from them they would all benefit greatly.

      @Watch Hill~ The only problem with them moving their business to America for better profit is that most of these materials that are needed &/OR used in making all of these extremely beautiful items are only found in & around their specific region of the world, so they would not have access to those items if they moved over here to America, especially the things that the artist personally go out &look for to collect to make their certain creations like the specific clay, dirt, flowers, etc... to make such beautiful pottery, painted tiles, colored fabric, etc... or the specific type of certain trees that are needed in order to make that beautiful paper & also the "Feni" liquor from Cashew fruit, and those are just a few examples but TBH... you are ABSOLUTELY correct that most Americans DEFINITELY will pay TOP DOLLAR for such AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL & VERY PRECIOUS ITEMS that we consider TREASURES, ESPECIALLY with them being 100% AUTHENTIC, for sure!!

      @@floridafarmingfamily9955 In large, most of them would benefit greatly simply by finding a way to market their items in the American market while staying where they are. A few of them, such as the bone carver, could easily move their trade to America and continue on either as well or better than before but, as you pointed out, most of them would need to stay where they are in order to perform their trade.
      Imagine how much the life of the tile maker would change if he were to get a handful of contracts in America? In just my own limited experience I have seen tile ranging up to $500 per tile! The tile maker is selling his hand made tiles for around $40 each. Even adding in freight and taxes, that's still well in the range where they would sell here, if only people were aware of him.
      I think it's sad that trades like the tile maker and bone carver (etcetera) are dying out when the western market would easily support it.

    The bone lampshades are so beautiful! And I now want to go get my own bespoke hat from Lock & Co.. Thank you for this wonderful documentary to teach people about the traditional trades that are in danger of being lost. We need to preserve the knowledge of these traditional crafts so they don't die out completely before we discover there IS a need for these crafts. Machine made items don't have the same soul as hand produced artisanal items.

    I wish that for a lot of these artisans, like Saied Hussain in Cairo, that there was a way to purchase from abroad. Those tiles are beautiful, and I'm happy (if possible) to help keep it alive. Sure, I want beautiful tile, but I also don't want such traditions/techniques to die out either.

    I really love these videos but I wish you'd include websites (if any) so people can purchase the goods. There are so many people in this series that could benefit from the exposure. I think it's everyone's job to keep these traditions going.

      The problem is that most, if not all, of these artists have no way of marketing their crafts online. They don't have computers, some don't even have electricity because it's too expensive, plus they don't have anyone to run/setup a website, nor do they have the money to pay for someone to do so. I'm like you, yes, it would be great & would help their bottom dollar sales, & I would certainly buy from them, but unfortunately it's just not feasible.

    I never knew going to a cemetery and having your ancestors bones removed from the grave and cleaned was a thing. Let alone, so popular that the man can have six or more families come every day to do so. My mind is blown... And those skulls had hair on them and sometimes the hair was separate on its own, haha.
