Amass Leather Agency

Being on the first floor at No. 8/68 Woothcattan Street means we see the street from a bit of a distance, but the noise of Periamet still reaches us. Amass Leather Agency is basically a room full of samples and ledgers. Leather has a very specific smell that stays in your clothes long after you go home. Some people hate it, but we don't even notice anymore. We spend a lot of time looking at different hides and checking for marks or bad spots. It’s a lot of walking back and forth to the storage area. The stairs up to our place are a bit steep and narrow, so bringing big bundles up is always a bit of a struggle. We’ve had the same old desk for years, and the edges are all worn down from people leaning on them while they talk. Periamet is the heart of this trade, so everyone we know is doing something similar. We hear the trucks loading and unloading all day long. It’s not a quiet place to work, but it feels right for what we do. We usually have the radio playing low in the background, mostly just to drown out the traffic. When a shipment arrives, the whole place gets chaotic for a few hours. Then it settles back down to the usual routine of checking orders and making sure the counts are right. It’s just how things go for us here on Woothcattan Street.
