Some industrialists in nineteenth-century Europe prefer hand
labour over machines because:
→ Machines were costly, ineffective, difficult to repair, and
needed huge capital investments.
→ Labour was available at low wages at that period of time.
→ In seasonal industries only seasonal labour was required.
→ Market demands of variety of designs and colour and specific
type could not be fulfilled by machine made clothes. Intricate
designs and colours could be done by human-skills only.
→ In Victorian age, the aristocrats and other upper class people
preferred articles made by hand only.
