Comment: "Yes, I agree that handicrafts has an amateurish sense.
In French, this would be Chambre de l'Artisanat or Chambre des métiers which gives Chamber of trades. Of course, and Crafts may be added."

: "handicrafts" makes me think of embroidery, tapestry and basket-weaving, not skilled craft trades
