This 9K rose gold Alighieri Sinking Stars necklace is handcrafted in the label’s London studio and features a delicate clasp-fastening chain. It's strung with a traditionally wax-cast pendant inspired by Virgil’s reminder to Dante on their odyssey: ‘already every star sinks that was rising when I set out and it is forbidden to stay too long.’ While we agree with Virgil that some things are better left behind, we wholeheartedly believe that this Alighieri pendant necklace is the one accessory you can take with you as you move on to new adventures.
