Leatherworkers

Leatherworkers are artisans who create and craft objects from animal hides and leather materials. They design, cut, shape, and often sew or decorate leather to produce items like bags, shoes, belts, wallets, and furniture. Using a variety of tools, techniques, and finishes, they transform raw or processed leather into functional and artistic products. Leatherworking combines craftsmanship with an understanding of different leathers' textures and properties, resulting in durable, aesthetically pleasing items that often reflect traditional skills and modern design.
