Artisans & Their Networks

Many industrial and artistic products are the result of a long series of collaborations between various skilled artisans, including chemists, paint colourists, woodworkers, metalworkers, potters, kiln masters, and so on. This page is dedicated to artisanal exchange and highlights the networks that contribute to art, industry, architecture, and design. While I highlight the artisans of Brongniart's lifetime, this page has examples ranging from the Fifteenth through the Twenty-first Century.
