Some industrialist of Europe in 19th century preferred hand labor over machines:
- Machines where very expensive, hard to repair and needed a lot of investments.
- Labor was available for very less price at that period of time.
- In some industries labors where only required in some seasons of the year.
- Market demands for a variety of goods could not be done by machine made clothes. Designs would only be able to be completed by human skills only.
- During the Victorian age most of the aristocrats and upper-class people preferred articles made by hand.
