fasn8ya Posted May 7, 2016 Report Posted May 7, 2016 Hello my fellow leather enthusiasts! I was wondering if anyone uses a more refined, distinguished or unique title for what we do as leather crafters or workers. Quote
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted May 7, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted May 7, 2016 I usually refer to myself as Jeff, but I have others using various terms Quote "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.

Thor Posted May 7, 2016 Report Posted May 7, 2016 In Germany this is very simple. The general term is "Sattler", derived into "Reitsportsattler" (making about everything needed for riding - not just horses) "Feintäschner" (making bags and such) "Fahrzeugsattler" (everything leather and fabric you can think of related with the automotive industry. Pretty sure vessels and planes are in this category as well) You're welcome to translate them into English. Quote
Contributing Member LatigoAmigo Posted May 7, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted May 7, 2016 How about "leather artisan"? Quote

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted June 11, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted June 11, 2016 I bounce between leather artisan, leather worker, and a few others.... Generally, leather artisan, hence the name for my facebook group. Quote Mike DeLoach Esse Quam Videri (Be rather than Seem) "Don't learn the tricks of the trade.....Learn the trade."
