A glove-maker, also known as a glover or a glove artisan, is a skilled crafts-person who specializes in creating and repairing gloves. They may also be referred to as a leather worker or a leather artisan since gloves are typically made from leather materials. Another term for a glove-maker is a glovecrafter, which emphasizes the artistry and craftsmanship involved in making gloves. In some regions, the term "glove smith" is used to describe a person who makes gloves, drawing parallels to the work of a blacksmith. Regardless of the term used, glove-makers must possess a high level of skill, precision, and attention to detail to create high-quality gloves.
