Guy Salter, chairman and founder of London Craft Week, echoed the sentiment that traditional craftsmanship is increasingly valued in China. He recalled encountering an elderly artisan there who had personally experienced this transformation.

"To that old man, traditional craftsmanship wasn't just a skill—it was his dignity. I've never forgotten that meeting," Salter said.
