    I think you should encourage such people.  Some will attempt to
    advance further as they become discontent with mass findings, etc. 
    They may move into being jewelers or they may not as their commitment
    and ability dictate. 

    But all those who attempt become a much better market for the art or
    individual jeweler. They have more appreciation of the skill required
    and they know more about materials and design. Thereby they separate
    themselves from the consumer oriented material and move into the
    craftspersons' market.  

    If I were running a craft oriented business, I would nourish and keep
    careful eye on these potential customers.
