Craft practice has experienced a sharp rise in popularity since the
late 2000s, partly through the ‘aura of the analogue’ and the
desire for authentic, handmade products in an increasingly fast
paced, digitalised world (Luckman, 2015) but also because of
digital platforms such as Etsy and social media enabling
‘anyone’ to become a craft entrepreneur. This book brings
together historical, policy and individual narratives to inform a
broad understanding of craft entrepreneurship. Drawing on case
studies from around the world, Craft Entrepreneurship considers
questions of identity, community, and the digital in craft
entrepreneurship. In doing so, it finds craft activities to be
positioned between or across the arts, heritage, notions of a
bohemian lifestyle and the challenges of micro-entrepreneurship. By
engaging with the contradictions and fragility of sustaining a
craft practice, the chapters in this book contribute to different
perspectives for entrepreneurship studies. The contributions to
this volume illustrate the craft entrepreneurs’ identity,
motivation and sense of creative purpose through their craft, as
these collide with the tensions brought about through
entrepreneurship.
