Our Story

How it all started

The Literalist was born from a passion for English idioms and their cultural richness. These little phrases that pepper our everyday conversations often tell fascinating stories and reflect the humor and creativity of the English language.

Our mission

We want to pay tribute to these linguistic treasures by illustrating them with humor and style. Every product is a celebration of the English language, designed to make people smile and spark conversation.

Our values

• Creativity - Original, carefully crafted designs
• Quality - Durable, well-made products
• Humor - The art of not taking ourselves too seriously
• Culture - Celebrating the richness of the English language

Our products

From "break a leg" to "it's raining cats and dogs," every idiom is carefully selected and illustrated to create unique products: mugs, t-shirts, tote bags, posters and more.

All our products are printed with care and built to last. Because a great idiom deserves a great product!
