The skinner is a craftsman specializing in the treatment and preparation of animal skins intended to be transformed into leather or fur. He receives the raw skins and treats them using techniques such as tanning, salting or drying, to make them supple, durable and ready to be used by other craftsmen (saddlers, leatherworkers, etc.). This profession requires a great deal of knowledge of skins, chemical processes and specific tools to guarantee the quality of the final product.
