Definition

Craftmanship refers to a skill in a particular craft. It can also refer to the quality of design in something made or buil by hand. Craftmanship plays an important role in Design, Art and Architecture. Without craftmanship it would be impossible to realise ideas, in a careful and sensitive manner.
