The Unfolding Seed Necklace is the second in the anthology of pieces, designed to mark the 50th anniversary of Refuge’s first safe house in 1971.The Unfolding Seed represents Refuge’s amazing journey. The textured surface with intricate crevices and layers, symbolises the difficulty of this path, whilst the delicate shape of the seed celebrates the beginning of change and new chapters.The small yet tough pendant is held on a linked box chain, and can be worn to the front or to the side, to tell your story. The gilded seed is the ultimate symbol of strength, to be layered with your existing talismans, or worn as a statement by itself.

At Alighieri, we believe in creating forever heirlooms. This piece is carved by hand, then cast in bronze and plated in gold a stone's throw from our studio in Hatton Garden. The bronze used in this manufacturing process is fully recycled, with all excess metal going back into the cycle of creating tomorrow's forever piece. Each one is then hand-finished with care and love. Our small, family-run caster has been our partner since the very inception of the brand - every step of our process is driven by human beings and their stories, from Dante to Rosh to our A-team... to you.

Your Alighieri order will be packed by hand, with love, and dispatched within 1-2 working days.
