Alighieri's 'Chapter ii' necklace is adorned with a baroque freshwater pearl chosen for its beautifully unique shape and natural inclusions and the brand's signature 'Leone' medallion. It's handmade by molding an ancient Venetian coin in wax, before casting in gold-plated bronze. The embossed lion is meant to remind the wearer to be strong and courageous.
Founded in 2014, Alighieri creates jewellery inspired by Dante Alighieri’s ‘Divine Comedy’. Its ‘Modern Heirlooms’ are all handcrafted in London. Core pieces are cast in recycled bronze before being plated in gold, or made in solid sterling silver, supplied by certified members of the Responsible Jewellery Council.
