Abstract

?More and more women set up their own business in jewelry, ceramics, leather production, etc. This feminization of French crafts jeopardizes the traditional models which are based on business transmission from father to son or on workers? upward mobility through self-employment. Actually, most artist-craftswomen practiced a salaried executive job before becoming self-employed workers. Consequently, they do not engage in their craft and their business in the same way as men: they often consider their activity as an art form. The article, which is based on both quantitative and qualitative data, highlights the very different relations men and women have with self-employment within a specific professional universe. It finally analyses the social and institutional effects of the feminization of French crafts in terms of artification and depreciation.?
