12:23 58:26 the japanese kettle segment is played twice
Business insider do be real snitching with making 1 hour videos
followed by the porcelain segment again
Thanks for commenting, I thought I was crazy for a second there.
Business Insider is really setting the bar high for modern day documentaries.
So long, television!
Haven't watched television for more than nine years!
lol business insider is ripping off people that have been doing quality work like this for years, you're just out of touch
@@TiborRoussou I got rid of all mine over 14 years ago.
@@susankeith326 Bet you don't miss it; I know I don't!
@yewcat, So long, television! You read my mind! Televisions are nothing new anymore!
I love this series. It helps us appreciate the worker and ultimately the product.
Fascinating! It makes me realize how much most of us take for granted certain things that we use. The amount of work put into some of these items is incredible.
that is called WHITE PRIVILEGE. white people in the united states SUFFER from TOTAL privilege. have NO clue the hardships people in the rest of the world suffer to feed their families.
@@hypnotherapycw I wouldn't say it's just white people in America who benefit. I would say most people who live in Western societies benefit because big business depends on having a supply of cheap goods that can be sold for a great deal more. It's terribly wrong and sad.😕 I'm just saying it's just not white people in America.
@@miriaml.150 thank you for WHITESPLAINING that for us. hilarious. racist trash.
@@hypnotherapycw Your response tells me how brilliant and worldly you must be! Impressive! 😂
I would be retiring or working less in 5 years and I just want to know best how people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments. I earn around $165K per year but nothing to show for it yet.
you're not alone, i'm part of the High Earners, Not Rich Yet (HENRY) not having much left after taxes, housing, and family costs.. not to mention saving for an affluent retirement.
. Don't be a marketing strategy for luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Tag Heuer without having your money give birth to more money (I recommend ''The Richest Man In Babylon'') Rather, you can move to wealth by reducing expenses and increasing savings or investments. As far as I'm concerned, its ideal to consult a reliable financial advisor for such objectives.
@@castlerock4207 i totally agree, the end worries of handling my finance came in the person of a licensed advisor from CHARLES SCHWAB, and in less than 5 years, I've made it into a staggering $10M after subsequent investments. In my experience, fear can take control if waiting too long to set investment goals, but that should go away once you set the plan into motion.
@@spaceship30 wow! I'm 58. 75,000 USD pension, and only began this stock thing a few months ago. Oh, and I live in the Great White North, Canada. I'm ramping up my savings for next year, while the economy and the feds play silly buggers. My goal is to see 2030 in good health and finish up my home payment by next year. Mind if I look up the advisor that aids you?
@@gray3057 My FA is "Ashley Breanne Haley'' watched her on a CNBC interview where she was featured and reached out to her afterward. She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look up her name online if you care about supervision. I basically copy her trades.
Just came across this channel its relaxing, informative , and entertaining. Thank You!!!
It’s crazy that all these things are so expensive yet we all know the workers that do a majority of the work still don’t get paid enough to do it
That is why you can’t find hand made anymore. The hands that make this art are very poor
you can say that for pretty much most industries in most countries,
So go and pay them more
Fortune favors the bold my friend.
Taking over your family business making handmade iron kettles in Japan will likely not make you rich....
What a crazy idea, and it sounds so revolutionary.
This is one of the best documentaries I've ever watched. ❤️ Thank you
BTW the handmade teapots made in Japan, has been repeated directly after the marble episode.

I wish I had some profession like these shown here. I am a higly educated engineer and sit by my desk with a lot of pressure and stress. I have no inner peace whatsoever and wake up at 4-5 crying from stress. These craftsmen have perfected some craft and create beauty in things I can onlyy dream of in my job. I imagine they have calm minds and feel a satifaction from what they do and create. They do if out of love for their craft not like me who do it to pay my rent and finance the purchases of meaningless thing I get to distract me a few seconds from my empty life.
These craftsmen/women have a much richer life than I can ever dream of having... I envy them.
If you're an engineer doing well in your field, I'm assuming you have some savings? Is something specific stopping you taking a sabbatical and learning a trade? If not, please invest in your happiness. Your current situation sounds like a recipe for an unhappy life and stress related health problems.
Changing your course always seems like it's 'too late', but rivers that have been flowing for thousands of years do it with the slightest environmental change.
Your quality of life is worth investing in. You're worth investing in.
From my own tile experience, which is more than 24 years, I can truly appreciate the labour intensive hours and the attention to fine detail! I have made many custom tile jobs where I have spent hours cutting natural stone into the exact sizes I wanted for a given pattern. Each custom tile job has it's own price; the more intricate the pattern, the more expensive the project will be. If people ask me how much, they simply cannot afford my skill set.
What I like the most is to see workers that take so much pride in their job.
Is nt only about fame and getting rich but also tradition and family.
Is nt individuality but team work and integrity.
Admirable and honorocious....
I think you were looking for "honourable", "honorocious" is not a word lol at least not in English
Ty English is my Second language
They could make more money if they did everything themselves without a big company taking a majority of their value away
the dedication is priceless
Love videos like this were you learned new things 😍
Yeshua is the son of God who died and rose three days later and loves all of you. He took God's wrath upon Himself, that was the punishment for everyone in sin. He died for everyone and wants you with Him, to know Him and live for His glory. Come be saved eternally and spend time with Him to know Him. Attend a church and read scripture.
Be saved, free, forgiven, healed, delivered, baptized, whole and let Him show you how He is everything you need. He alone satisfies.
We are to live righteous and Holy because He said to and paid for our way to live like Him. Ask anything in His name and the Father will do it amen hallelujah praise God thank you Jesus .
I lift up everyone's prayers, wants and needs to You Jesus, please pour out blessings. May Your favor and mercy be upon the world. In Jesus name come help us all. You know our needs and everything else about each of us. In Jesus name amen thank you Jesus praise God 🙏
Jesus, Help people to be rooted and grounded in Your love and to obey Your truth. That they are living in the truth being taught by You. That they know Your voice and word. Knowing truth from errors, discernment. 💕
We are to live ive righteous, doing the right thing always and living in obedience to scripture, every word of it.
We are ambassadors of Christ. We represent God, when we are seen Jesus should be seen, His ways not ours. We should be living for and showing God, living for His glory. We are to be an example of Yeshua, for the world to see Him and want to know Him and know Him more. 🙏 🔥
2 Chronicles 7:14 says, if My people humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways I will hear them from heaven and heal their land. 🙏 💖
People need to turn from their wicked ways, Jesus paid for it. That's God stating it in that verse and there are more verses. People need to repent, to be cleansed by His blood and live Holy because He's Holy and righteous because He's righteous. Our God said to stop sinning in many many scriptures and He paid for everyone to be cleansed of sin (Isaiah 53), and to live how He said. He dwells in the Holy temple (your body) and said not to defile the temple. He said to defile the temple is death. He's always serious about everything He said to do. He's just as serious about what He said not to do.
We live in obedience to His law, every word of it! He dwells within us all to be with and lead us in His ways. 💕🙏🔥 🕊️
Deuteronomy 28 there are blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. The whole chapter, and verse 46 is one example of generational curses. These go into the following generations, the 3 and 4th. Our children pay the price for our sin.
God has said to stop sinning. Scripture says how you are sending consequences to yourself and to your loved ones, children. By God's law you are. If you don't believe me ask Him, in Jesus name may you see and know the truth in its fullness. Love your neighbor as you love yourself.
Jesus is worthy of everything He said and paid for, so I implore you to do as God said.
Yeshua said If you love Me you will obey My commands. Love Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.💖🙏🕊️🔥 Praise God so Awesome!! Hallelujah Yeshua 🙏
God loves all of you and you are worthy to Him, Yeshua died for all because God loves everyone. Come know Him, Yeshua call upon Him 💕 the world knows Him as Jesus, He answers 💕
Thank You, Yeshua for Your obedience and love, even unto Your death You obeyed the Father 🙏 Hallelujah Praise the Lord God Almighty 💕 In Yeshua's mighty name 🙏🔥💖🕊️
God is always faithfully Himself and so awesome. Every way He said He would be in scripture He is, every day ages and ages of Him never changing. Hallelujah Yeshua Praise the Lord God Almighty 🙏🕊️🔥💖
39:44 the sewing is not done by hand, it is done by a hand operated machine. Big difference
lol, you can't sew a pair of jeans into existence, Einstein. Sewing is just attaching two fabrics together. What he is doing is weaving, creating the fabric itself, and the tool he is using is called a loom. Looms are almost always automated machinery these days. Weaving by hand like you are talking about is knitting, and its only feasible because yarn is super thick. Knitting jeans together with tiny cotton threads used to make denim would take a century. They even say that he produces only 1 cm of jean per hour! Is that not laborious enough? This is like saying "you didn't cook this food from scratch, you used knives and a stove!"
@@JunkBondTrader While what you are saying is true, it seems irrelevant as an answer to this particular comment. Satsumamoon is right - the jeans are not stitched by hand, rather a machine. Which is not that terribly exclusive - sewing textiles is one of the harder-to-automate processes out there. While some machines can automate some processes (I'm pretty certain there's a machine that spits out a continuous ribbon that later gets cut into belt loops if we're discussing jeans), machines really don't like textiles. Sort of not solid enough for good feedback on the machine end... but I digress.
@@JunkBondTrader eh?
I think the point is that you have people operating machines and handling the fabrics manually versus robots that could probably do similar work without a person. And by robots I mean programmed hardware that manipulates the fabric into the right position for it to be stitched with very little intervention by humans etc etc. I think by the fact they showed the process they're not trying to say something untrue. I think you are overthinking this in a negative way. That's just how it sounds to me.
@@miriaml.150 I happen to currently work doing the simplest manual labor sewing operations in a factory in a European country. I'd be among the first people to get automated out if it were economically remotely reasonable.
Just seeing how we grew and how it all happened in the previous times is just amazing and astonishing .the documentaries are so real it makes me feel as if I'm actually seeing it .seeing It brings a very unknown emotion can't really describe but it's a mix of gratitude, sympathy, underdstanding and mostly astonishment .And how democratic their work is! one can't have it all n everybody jointly have to make an effort ,be patient. I cried after this .
The people that makes these things shown in this video are not getting rich, distributor and retailer are who’s getting rich from it not the people who make this stuff. And this is one reason why the young people don’t want to continue with these traditions, because they don’t get paid anything to do it. The price of living goes up but the wages to produce to do these things doesn’t go up.
@@susansouthard Truth 👍🏾
In what way is this "democratic"? these people are motivated by hunger not democracy. Democracy is a western concept.

Extraordinary artists, beautiful work. Thank you 🙏
Any smart person who enjoys learning other cultures, would take note of these very artists, and when visiting their countries of origin, visit and learn more first hand.
Experiences of a life time, I should say.
at a buffet, i personally sneak corndogs into the buffet so others can enjoy them. I hide 6 corndogs in my jacket pockets. it then, is a joy for me to see other patrons of the establishment eat my corndogs thinking they were part of the buffet.

Thank you doctor
One corndog at the buffet, keeps the doctor away
I think I ate one the other day at my local Golden Corral Buffet...as a frequent and long-time customer of Golden Corral's fine American buffets I am quite familiar with the standard fare on offer at said establishments. Last week, as I was enjoying another satisfying trip to the Golden Corral and preparing to get a 2nd plate of food I noticed a few corn dogs under one of the heating lamps. I was thoroughly perplexed, as you would expect. Any long-time Golden Corraller knows corn dogs are not a part of the traditional fare one would expect to find at said establishments. Undeterred by my perplexion, and without a moments further hesitation, I placed one of those corndogs on to my plate and subsequently into my belly. There it stayed until I came across your comment which summoned the corndogs memory from the deep reaches of my mind and bowels.
@@mat4263 this is the most beautifully written and poetic love story for my corndog saga that I have ever witnessed. You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar, and heaven awaits you with all of its eternal gifts. Stay you, stay awesome, stay free, stay writing pure ART. 🙏

@28:20 - what happens to the liquid solvent that absorbed the fragrance before removing the concrete that is then used to make the absolute?
I've asked that myself too
It's probably used in a secondary product like lotions or body sprays.
Master’s making Masterpiece’s and must be preserved 💗👏👏👏
Beautiful tiles ! we use them on our projects all the time.

I have alot of respect for all the workers.
They're just trying to survive,and working there asses off in the process.
9:50 They have inner peace *proceeds to throw a rock at the camera*
Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed this. Better than most continent available
The hand painted dishes... so pretty!!!!
This is so why I love traveling the world when possible to see all the individual cultures that are shown in minute to maximum ways! The USA although still is still great on being very diverse in cultures, it still great to see local and region cultures!
Well the US is diverse, but you would be more than amazed to see what diversity means in countries like 'India'. The language, customs, and food can change every 100 kilometres or so.
Marble cutting excellent perfect work. Machines are amazing. Other important products are also very expensive and valuble like Jasmin from INDIA 🇮🇳
videos from japan are so 😌 relaxing, , makes me wanna move there
Breathing in lacquer fumes all day really makes you appreciate the beauty and craftmanship.
When they are cutting the stone into slabs, for the water to keep it cool and dust-free, so they attempt to precipitate the stone out of the water for re-use in other applications?
44:00 - since they harvest the fruits of the trees off the ground, selecting the best to go for processing and removing them from the ground - do they plant these wild-only-growing trees now? Because otherwise this species of plant is going to end up either a) extinct or b) radically diminished in output, as only the poorer quality fruits of the tree perpetuate themselves.
Her hands have to move 5000 times to pick the buds. That really hit home. That's a lot of finger strain those ladies go through.
5,000 for one kilo. and they pick 5-10 kilos a day.

Very good watch indeed.
Just found this channel, awesome video! The tile making was great
Thanks for sharing
That's s great and interesting your video . Appreciate your video😊
I love these so expensive videos so much! You should do so expensive by country too. So like united states, Canada, India, Australia, ect...
I like it the way it is. Feels like traveling around the world in two hours.
@@eddo2001 I completely understand that, but the way I see it with my suggestion you could really do a deep dive into one culture at a time as well. Basically if you get five or six from one country you could see what is making that country thrive or what is making that countries economy decline as well.
In America it's the blood thirsty greedy women.

The work from human hand carries the pulse of their heart. Machines/computers can never replace.
Soooo worth it. Just sooo pretttty😀
It's worth buying 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome Julia show it off off!
This is an awesome video. I enjoyed this video
The Jasmine industry is incredible! I had no idea the labour involved. No wonder the price is high as absolute!!!!
You can't find the new people who would be interested in pursuing that line of business? Well what benefits do you offer them? Do you give them incentives and a good pension? How about good health insurance? Do you give them bonuses and offer room for them room to grow? Times have changed and you have to change as well. All I am saying pay the artist well, these men make beautiful pieces.
So wonderful!
Very nice ! I love craftmanship
Awesome work.
All trades take the same human hours. Some things are just worth more. I would love to see what each worker makes each day to really calculate and sort the earnings potential into a tiered list.
But some things are worth more (partly) because producing one unit in one trade can take a lot longer than in another.
The kettle craftsmen do a very awesome job. We’ll done gentlemen
Seems Morroco makes a lot of the worlds best in block form.😁
28:13 ‘In limited amounts, this creates a pleasant aroma, as does jasmine’ …. Did…. Did the narrator just say her poop doesn’t stink? 😂
what a amazing skill to think they make tiles by hand after 100s of years amazing.
27:58 so...if poop had less indole....it'd smell great? 11:00 and 57:44 why is the kettle clip repeated?
Nice video and full of knowledge
Interesting stuff, i'm taking a nap.
just awesome job i enjoy the content looks so good
The iron kettle does bring a tear into my eye.
Culture being passed on to the next generation keeping it alive its one of the most demanding task.
Yeah... and then sharing it with the world.. Not hoarding it as something only YOUR people are allowed to do.. as a black man im sick of this sentiment.. we've wrongly claimed many things in our culture as OURS, and then shamed people for appreciating it and calling it appropriation.. Which is a nonsense word for "i dont know how to share, i wasnt taught as a child."... for instance Corn Rows, are not corn rows.. Its called a Dutch Braid and its dutch, yes, white people invented corn rows, and shared their culture with us, and we assimliated it and made our own twist to it.. Thats how culture works..
Even this type of art could probably be traced to some man that seen something made in another country, or brought to his, and was awe inspired, and thought "i would love to do this in my country, for my people, im sure people would love it.".. There is no ONE culture that is pure, unless its completely isolated from the world.. most cultures in the world are a melting pot of assimliated ideas over centuries, over Millenniums even..
Like silk... The chinese didnt go "well we invented a fine fabric, its a part of our culture, so we should keep it secret and hidden so its not appropriated by other races.." lol they created a literal supply chain to spread silk oer the entirety of the world.. it wasnt a "well were good at doing this, so we need to keep it secret so others cant do it.." no.. they said "this is such a magnificent thing we have done, and the world should see this, it will show how talented we are, and people elsewhere will also love it as we do, it will help bring appreciation towards our people."..
Lol sorry. shyt is just ridiculous.. gangster culture isnt even something we created.. Its a twist on Mafia Culture, in new york.. black men being fascinated with the culture, and the idea you could make a nam for yourself with just grit and a cold attitude and loyalty amongst your boys.. So they started making gangs, to mimic mafia culture.. even bluegrass is a spin on country and blues, its southern blues with a twist.. lol im sorry, im just at my limit here with people being racist.. And i specifically mean black people and white liberals who are being insanely racist.. by advocating for resegregation our society..
@@thomasriddle8877 this is a joke right? some copy-paste satire shit. i acc hv secondhand embarrassment. pretending to be black is crazy hopefully you get a life

and how many man hours go into making it . Beautiful workmanship just beautiful
i love tha japanese approach, so passionate and everything s about skill and dedication
Half of my father's life was farming jasmine and he produced tones of Jasmine but never knew they use it for anything apart from garlands.
And that's the hard truth. We, in India, do not realise the value of things or are not able to market it without some 'western' brand backing it.
Very interesting!
Jasmine smells great but now it makes me sneeze, but I still keep the plants going.
Such beautiful/expensive things from such poor countries. Its almost poetic how meesed up that is

As much as I enjoy these it’s hard to focus on what they’re doing when reading mainly subtitles, and when they go by fast I have to keep going back and pausing to see what they’re saying, so it ruins the flow of it. I’ve given up reading them lol If they didn’t have a narrator at all then I’d understand but they do & could get someone else like on tv to break it up. Hopefully I’m not the only one 😅.
Wonderful.
