Customer Reviews
This is the best addition to anyone's wardrobe, and fits with every style from casual to dressy. Am eye-catching conversation starter, the quality speaks for itself. I've had other items for over a year and have NO sign of wear, no scratches, no matter how much I use them. With ample room in a beautiful black velvet lining, nice inside pocket with two mini pockets, and a sturdy construction that keeps its shape through any handling. With an extra body length strap for cross-body wear, this is quite versatile. I only wish there were studs on the bottom of the bag, and either a metal tag sown inside or an imprint on the zippers that say "Lettoria" to prove it's an official handbag and not a knockoff, because right now there's nothing to prove it except my receipt.
This Ligeia design is everything. Please please PLEASE do your customer base a GIANT favor and do more Harry Clarke designs. Even beyond Poe, his work on Faust is so perfect and I’d buy every piece.
It was a gift for my daughter; she loves it. She uses it every day.
I just got it in the mail and let me tell you it is amazing we will see how it holds up but it's a beautiful bag!
So I just received my fall of the house of usher bag and I love it. There were a few minor imperfections such as strings but I just carefully cut those. I think people don’t realize that there are different types of leather, this is however leather just not what people are used to which is genuine leather (full grain leather). I was happy have gotten this for the sale price; i probably wouldn’t have spent over $100 just because full grain is my personal preference of leather. The picture quality is beautifully crafted as well.
Questions from the reading room.
Is the artwork printed on, or part of the leather?
Printed into it. The vegan leather surface is made for print, so the ink sets in the grain rather than sitting on top — as one reader put it, “the print sits in the grain, it doesn't sit on top of it.”
What fits inside?
A 13″ laptop, books, and a wallet — with room to spare. The volume measures 13.8″ × 10.6″ × 5.5″ (35 × 26.9 × 13.9 cm), with a black lined interior and a secure zipper closure.
What's the difference between the two bindings?
Premium vegan leather is the everyday reading copy — buttery-soft, waterproof, easy to keep, and the better canvas for the artwork. Top-grain leather from Tuscany is the collector's binding — natural grain that turns to patina the longer you carry it.
How long does delivery take?
Everything ships from the United States and leaves the press within 1–2 business days. Economy takes 5–8 business days ($9.99), Standard 3–5 ($12.99), Express 2–3 ($17.99) — tracked, every time.
What if it isn't my story?
Return or exchange it within 30 days, hassle-free. Checkout is secure, and our support desk reads every letter.
How do I care for it?
As you would a good book: keep it out of the rain, wipe with a soft dry cloth, store it upright, and let the leather breathe between chapters. Still wondering about anything? Write to the Press →
