Herbert's Pawn Building / Landmark in Nor | World Anvil

Herbert's Pawn

While officially noted as a pawnshop, Herbert's deals mostly in gems, jewelry and art objects. It is also a moneylender, and the best place in town to change foreign coins for local ones. People from all walks of life come to Herbert's store to buy valuables, as he has acquired an impressive reputation for knowing anyone and everyone who has something of value to offload.  

Architecture

The store sits in a building that has been used by merchants and storekeepers for as long as anyone can remember. Herbert has decorated it with bright, welcoming colors, and the main room is full of artworks of all kinds distributed around the normal collections of tools and household goods. The really valuable items are kept in a guarded backroom that has so far eluded all attempts at forced entry.

History

Herbert started his store after arriving in the city. He had always been a storekeeper, and a pawn shop had the major attraction of not requiring him to spend money he didn't have on buying inventory. He started out in Drac's End as a humble pawnbroker, but soon made enough money to move to richer quarters in the Eastern District. His personality quickly made him a hit, and his store soon grew. He was able to follow his heart, and started to deal more of the jewelry and art that reflected his passions for beautiful things.
