Introduction:

How many things we usually use have been made of leather, like bags, purses, shoes, earring, bracelet, etc. All this things isn't are of our age, no. All this things and more have been produced of leather, is actually we have things we used to be of leather, but for effects of advance of industries, and news ways of use things with materials with more resistance adding it to the leather, for example, balls of sports (football, basketball, etc), bags, etc.

The leather is more important in our life, and its mean is from of latin "curium": skin of animal, weather-beaten (Del Moral Cardoso, 2013). It has been since more sigles on our humanity's history. For this, is because exist a art specialize in manufacture of leather and this is: leather shop.

Body:
I
The leather shop is the estableshiment where they sell things of leather, and the art of making things of leather. It's a practice date from 700 AC approximately, where Assyrian's soldiers used to use mount with some decorations on it. (Artesanias en cuero, 2011) Also, fashion of the Medival age, and specially things of cavalery, of protections and mount to wars and travels on horse. 
II
Nevertheless into 5000 B.C the Egyptian tombs indicate many artifact made of leather like " sandals, clothes, buckets, bottles, shrouds for burying the dead and for military equipment"(Moore and Giles, 2018). And it's the ancient Greeks who developed tanning formulations of use of certain of leathers like soak some tree barks and leaves in water to preservative the leather. Making with this: leather tanned into vegetables, that's still a way to produce it like an active ingredient in the moderns tannages. (Moore and Giles, 2018) 
III
Many centuries later, the 18th an 19th with spread of industrialization, the need of news forms of made thing with leather was more, specially to the drive of machinery. Like with the invention car, with new shoes (lightweight footwear) with a fashionable appearance, and with the new general level of living demand a new, soft, colorful and supple leather. (Moore and Giles, 2018). For this, is necessary not only leather with the production with the vegetable tanned as the ancient Greeks.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the leather is still a thing we have a useful thing and the high quality when we know is made with leather, as the shoes, or a bag, for example. And despite it's more expensive for us, we have in our imaginary the price it's fine if the thing is made of leather, because all the story have behind of this, and many people ignorant of. The thing is, the leather shop it's a art that have its own history and for this merit our all respect and consideration to the traditional way we can found with this, not only machinery production make leather's things. Because traditional way imply more work, and more ancient, since ancient Greeks and Assyrian's soldier.
