      Crafts are functional objects usually made by skilled professionals, which is why they are called “handicraft” or “skilled craft”. “Crafts” should be considered a subset of art, but emphasized on their original, functional nature.

      Like a basket, or a leather wallet, or a necklace, or StarCraft.
