Inspired by the Assouline book about Naples, Travel Collection — and crafted in the city it celebrates.
Maria Marigliano Caracciolo is a true Neapolitan at heart. Naples is portrayed in this beautiful opus "as layered as a sfogliatella and as compelling as a Caravaggio" — and the designer herself is featured holding this very clutch in the original volume.
The Napoli Amore Book Clutch is a wearable love letter to Naples — a city of art, light, and extraordinary craft. Each piece is made entirely by hand at Palazzo Marigliano, one of Naples' most storied historic palaces, using centuries-old bookbinding techniques.
Personalisation
Add your name or initials to the back cover with an Ex Libris inscription — a Latin formula meaning "from the library of", used in 19th-century Europe to link a book to its owner's library. Ex Libris personalisation: +£35.00.
Craftsmanship
All By M. book clutches are one-of-a-kind, handcrafted in the finest Neapolitan bookbindery at Palazzo Marigliano. Made with traditional bookbinding leather, with sides in gold or silver leather and handmade embossing with gold or silver leaf. Please allow approximately three weeks for crafting. Each piece may vary slightly due to its handmade nature.
Every By M. clutch is a one-of-a-kind objet d'art — not a bag that looks like a book, but a book transformed into a bag. Conceived and made in Naples, each piece carries the soul of the city and the hands that shaped it.
