Meanwhile any art that serves a practical function, that is easily with in the reach of the lower classes, is shunned.

Used to be pretty common that well of ladies would do crafts like wood carving, embroidery and stuff like that to keep their hands busy even when they had housekeepers to do the brunt of the domestic labor.

At least that's what my grandma told me but she has an impressive collection of antique craft magazines to back it up.
