In today's era of industrial development and serial development of a large number of these cases, the unjustly forgotten is art of handicrafts that for the human race has always been precious, mysterious and had great significance. Designing and decorating objects of wood, embroidery on fabric and crochet, represent primaeval skill of our people.
