The Selva Oscura choker is the ultimate layer to elevate your look with strength and courage. When Dante enters the dark wood of the selva oscura he is lost, physically and metaphorically. The word oscura, translating as both ‘dark’ and ‘confused’, beautifully evokes the position he is in. Each textured molten link is hand-carved and woven together to create an armour for your everyday adventures. Wear it to guide you through the dark wood.

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.
