Editor's Notes
The Il Leone necklace is a signature gold-plated design from Alighieri - the London-based jewellery brand named after the renowned Italian poet, Dante, and inspired by the designer's literary background.
Each Alighieri piece is inspired by a different poem from Dante's Divine Comedy. The Il Leone necklace is crafted from an antique Venetian coin, recovered and restored with Alighieri wax and strung onto a fine gold-plated trace chain - the engraved lion design references Dante's own confrontation with a lion in the poem. A modern heirloom, it is an ultra-wearable statement piece that can be passed from generation to generation.
About Alighieri
After graduating from Oxford University in 2012, Alighieri founder Rosh Mahtani dreamed of creating modern heirlooms based on the French and Italian literature she had studied. Two years later, Alighieri was born. Named after the renowned Italian poet, Dante Alighieri, every piece is inspired by one of the 100 poems in his 14th century epic, the Divine Comedy. A brand firmly rooted in literature and travel, the designs are battered, imperfect and a little bit melancholy, with each one crafted sustainably from gold-plated recycled bronze through the process of lost-wax casting. From whirlwind adventures and mythical creatures to scraggy landscapes and passionate mistakes, each one has its own story.
