In Rethymno, a variety of folk art forms are still alive and practiced consistently such as pottery, basket making, wood sculpture, lithography and of course weaving. Some of these occupations are practiced by tradition in entire villages. At a certain extend people can base their whole economy on this occupation. Thus, in the village of Margarites of Milopotamos, pottery is the main occupation of many of its residents, who produce not only traditional decorative objects but also practical objects.
