India's silk-weaving industry on wane with fewer craftsmen, customers

An Indian silk weaver works at the loom to produce fabric for luxury "sari" clothing for women on Aug. 30, 2015, in the suburbs of Varanasi, a northern Indian town known for the craft. The traditional weaver's craft is facing its demise due to shortage of successors to the low-income job and changes in the fashion tastes of Indian women. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
