The Ordinance of Labourers of 1349 was motivated by the severe labor shortages and economic upheaval caused by the Black Death, which killed an estimated 30–60% of England’s population.
The ordinance aimed to stabilize the #economy by fixing wages at pre-plague levels, prohibiting excessive hiring or wages, and controlling food prices.
It also sought to discourage idleness by forbidding alms for able-bodied beggars.
“The Ordinance of Labourers, passed in June 1349, declared that all men and women under the age of sixty who did not practice a craft must serve anyone requiring their labor.”

helping others and 'craftivism' is in line with my personal values, and something I hope to incorporate more into my work.
as someone who dedicated my life to #art and craft, this article raised some interesting questions about modern #craft culture-reinforcing my passion for making functional #ceramics.

Just finished this little project: a wooden pendant made from Elder Wood (from my backyard!) with the Ogham sign for Elder burned into it.
i'm trying to stay away from making cups (my pottery comfort zone) but after throwing a bunch of lids and spouts, i had a little nub of clay left, and decided to make this tiny little shot glass or espresso cup 'for fun'. it's sooo cute!!! These will be great for glaze testing.
