Roger Dörig Kunsthandwerk is a family run Sennsattler, a saddler and goldsmith combination, that specializes in traditional Swiss Appenzell products. In 1994 the Sennensattler-Büdeli (leather studio) was inherited by the fourth generation of the family and renamed for the new artisan. Roger Dörig, the craftsman, specializes in leather and metal Appenzeller Gürtel, a leather belt decorated with symbolic metal pieces historically tied to the area.
