In Taiwan and China, there is a substantial industry for indoor and outdoor furniture and fixtures made from solid marble. The workshops ..
have crude equipment but extremely skilled hand labor that can cut perfectly round radiuses and perfectly level flats, relief carvings and

because the marble is so plentiful and the skilled labor is so affordable. Taiwan is basically a mountain of solid marble sticking out of

Quality craftsmanship is rare because it's a lot pricier than average crafting. So not many pay for it, which makes it rare. Which means 1/2
Less craftsman specialising to that level which, I assume, increases the cost
That's what I assume, but that's not what OP said. Plus, the problem isn't a lack of quality craftsmanship, it's ppl being unwilling to pay.
thundercactus
The craftsmanship is definitely more common now than it was before. Used to be only emperors and kings had that stuff.
Probably a survival bias, too: we look at furniture from 100 yr ago and think "wow, this is so sturdy!" But that's because the rickety >>
>> shit doesn't survive, so we mistakenly assume all old furniture was of high quality
