Alighieri is a stunning jewellery brand created by London-based designer Rosh Mahtani and is inspired by/draws inspiration from the famous poet Dante Alighieri’s “Divine Comedy”.

While studying at Oxford University, Rosh discovered resonance in her French and Italian literature studies and in Dante Alighieri’s “Divine Comedy.” She became inspired by a one-day wax carving course that encouraged her to express her emotions differently.

Her label, Alighieri, was founded in 2014 and is known for creating modern heirlooms with fragments of imperfection and vulnerability inspired by Dante Alighieri. Each talisman has a story, inviting you to tell yours. This collection is constructed from recycled bronze, silver, or gold, using lost wax casing (a responsible practice), and represents one of Dante’s 100 poems.

With its gold-plated finish, the Tramonto opal necklace will be a stunning addition to your collection. There is something beautiful about this necklace’s story. Designed after Rosh Mahtani’s childhood in Africa and inspired by “the magic of pastel-hued skies after a rainfall on hot ground”, it features a gorgeous pink opal and is made from recycled gold plating!

There is also the Limitless Wanderer Scarf, which is a gorgeous addition to your collection. It’s an exquisite scarf that can be worn around the neck, looped through your hair, or worn as a belt. The silk twill jacket is made with OEKO-TEX®-certified inks, and it incorporates the brand’s designs and talismans you collect from your travels.
