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.

Through the Alighieri journey, Rosh has been very open about her own personal challenges of self-doubt. Early on, she created The Over-Thinker Hair Tie, inspired by Dante Alighieri’s similar feelings, as he finds himself lost in the selva oscura of the Inferno. His guide, Virgil reassures him with a dose of tough love; instructing him to stop over-thinking, to push his cowardice aside, and to go forth through the dark wood. This fragment of their interaction is carried on the hair tie as a reminder to be courageous and without fear.” - R.M
