fasn8ya Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thor Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TwinOaks Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
