AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Harry Potter – The Complete Saga
Unique handcrafted leather-bound edition

This extraordinary edition of Harry Potter – The Complete Saga has been conceived as a true artisan and collector’s piece, combining literary heritage with fine bookbinding craftsmanship.
The project begins with an original Bloomsbury slipcase, which was subsequently transformed through a complete rebinding process carried out entirely by hand in Italy by LaCasaDiBo, a workshop specialized in bespoke and artistic bindings. Each of the seven volumes has been fully bound in genuine calfskin leather, carefully selected for its durability, softness, and ability to develop a refined patina over time.
The covers feature cold-pressed impressions, executed according to an original design created specifically for this set. The decorations are enriched with thematic motifs.
Every volume carries its own decorative identity: the designs on each book are thematically inspired by the corresponding part of the saga, creating a visual narrative that
evolves across the series
A particularly striking feature is the decoration of the spines: when the seven books are placed together, they form a continuous panoramic image of Hogwarts Castle.
Meticulously crafted by hand. This transforms the set into a single, cohesive visual composition, making it not only a literary collection but also a formidable decorative piece.
Object with strong aesthetic presence.
The slipcase itself is also covered in genuine leather and decorated to match the volumes, conceived as a fully original and integral part of the project rather than a standard container.
The books are in pristine condition, and the craftsmanship reflects a high level of precision, balance, and artistic intent.
This edition can be considered an artist’s edition in the strictest sense.
Only one copy exists in this specific color and decorative scheme, accompanied by this entirely original slipcase. While two other leather-bound Harry Potter sets by the same artisan
They are known to exist, but they differ significantly in color, decoration, and overall design, making this example unique and unrepeatable.
Created in Italy, this set stands as a celebration of craftsmanship, originality, and the enduring cultural impact of the Harry Potter saga—designed for collectors who value both.
Literature and the art of fine binding.
