The Rooster 24kt Gold-Plated Necklace

Alighieri creative director Rosh Mahtani draws inspiration from the Chinese zodiac to create this The Rooster necklace, a sign that is renowned for diligence, courage, and determination. It's handmade in the label's London atelier from 24kt gold-plated bronze with a slender chain and an amorphic-shaped rooster charm, in keeping with the designer's fascination with imperfection.
