这是珠宝品牌Alighieri的创始人兼创意总监Rosh Mahtani依靠。她的作品首先用蜡雕刻，然后用回收的黄金铸造
Rosh Mahtani, founder and creative director of jewellery brand Alighieri, is no stranger to drawing inspiration from the classics. Her pieces, which are first carved in wax and then cast in recycled gold, silver and bronze, are frequently inspired by Dante Alighieri’s writings – specifically about pivotal moments when courage is required.
珠宝品牌Alighieri的创始人兼创意总监Rosh Mahtani对从经典汲取灵感并不陌生。她的作品首先用蜡雕刻，然后用回收的金，银色和青铜铸造，经常受到但丁·阿利吉耶里（Dante Alighieri）的著作的启发 - 特别是关于需要勇气的关键时刻。
“I have always been drawn to antique medallions from Roman times, and this inspired the very first medallion I created – Il Leone – for strength and courage. I love them because they feel like they’ve been dug up from the ground, from times gone by,” Mahtani begins.
“我一直被罗马时代的古董纪念章所吸引，这启发了我创造的第一个奖章 - il Leone - 力量和勇气。我爱他们，因为他们觉得他们觉得他们从地面上挖了，从时代过去了，” Mahtani开始说。”
Il Leone medallion is still Alighieri’s bestselling piece – one Mahtani has called the “North Star” of her brand as the ultimate expression of this search for courage.
Il Leone Medallion仍然是Alighieri最畅销的作品 - 一个Mahtani称其品牌的“北极星”是这种勇气的最终表达。
“I created the Leone medallion as a reminder to myself to be strong in moments of self-doubt. It was one of the first pieces I made, in 2014. The textured medallion is inspired by the moment when Dante Alighieri finds himself in the selva oscura (dark wood) of the Inferno, confronted by a terrifying lion. Dante crumbles and has an existential crisis when his mentor and friend, Virgil, suddenly appears to reassure him and give him confidence. It is a turning point, where fear turns into self-belief,” she explains.
