A cradle of art and promoter of beauty, for millennia Europe has boasted expert hands that have carved, sculpted, cut, assembled, engraved, woven, gilded, welded, painted and polished, to create and restore a heritage without equal that is admired the world over. The noble gestures that create rare objects acquire even greater worth when admired by young apprentices, who will repeat them in their turn and so render the craft of Europe’s high-end artisans eternal.
