Red List of Endangered Crafts

Category: Other

Introduction

I was invited by Heritage Crafts to participate in the Red List of Endangered Crafts event, where new crafts were added to the list and awareness was raised about more than 200 crafts already recorded. I presented my work on compo frames carried out at The Royal Oak Foundation Conservation Studio at Knole House, National Trust.

Composition picture frame making is currently listed on the Red List of Endangered Crafts. With few active practitioners and limited opportunities for hands-on training, the continuation of this heritage craft relies on projects like this, supporting both conservation outcomes and skills development.
