Apprentice Piece (1)
Miniature leather saddle and stirrups, probably made by an
apprentice member of the Skinners and Glovers Incorporated Trade
who were leatherworkers.
Each apprentice served five years. At the end of this time he
had to produce an example of his work to prove he had reached a
satisfactory standard. If successful he would become a journeyman
and after another three years he would become a master
craftsman.
