The Leatherworker is a villager profession in Minecraft that specializes in trading leather armor and leather-related items. It uses the Cauldron as its job site block, which allows unemployed villagers to take on the profession when placed nearby.
Trades include leather armor , saddles , and leather horse armor , making them useful for acquiring early-game armor and equipping horses. At higher levels, they offer decorative dyed leather armor , allowing players to customize their look.
They progress through five levels— Novice , Apprentice , Journeyman , Expert , and Master —unlocking better trades as they gain experience. They can be leveled up by trading emeralds , leather , and rabbit hide .
Leatherworkers can be zombified and cured to reduce trade costs, making them useful in trading halls. They spawn naturally in villages but can also be assigned the profession by placing a Cauldron near an unemployed villager.
