However, the conservation of Japanese traditions relies not only on the access to relevant natural resources but also on artisans＇ ability to manufacture crafts in specific environments. The perspectives of artisans on their work environments have a significant influence on traditional crafts. In this study, we aimed to investigate the changes in natural resource use in a vilage recognized for Koishiwara-yaki-style pottery. We employed a questionnaire and conducted interview surveys to collect data on the perceptions of the artisans working in the said viliage. The findings were as follows. 1 ） The area commonly resarded by the artisans as their place for pottery was identified. The identification of areas that are significant to local tradition can serve as a vital contribution to spatial planning. 2） The birth place of the local ceramics tradition in a local water catchment area was regarded as critically important in the preservation of the traditions of the viilage. 3） Several potters emphasized the value of their work environment to ver administrative support because of the histoHcal connection between the place and their traditions. Highlighting this connection can attract historical and cultural tourism to this area.展开更多

Key innovations are discussed, demonstrating their role in enhancing textile production while preserving cultural heritage. Major challenges, such as competition from industrial textiles and the need for sustainable practices, are identified. Opportunities for growth are explored, including leveraging tourism and international markets to promote Saudi handicrafts. The social and cultural impacts of the sector are underscored, particularly in sustaining community traditions and providing economic opportunities for artisans. Strategic recommendations for supporting and advancing the industry are offered, ensuring its continued relevance and sustainability in a rapidly changing global market.
