London-based, Rosh Mahtani studied French and Italian
at Oxford University. Upon graduating in 2012, she was inspired to
create modern heirlooms, born from the literature she had studied:
Dante Alighieri’s “Divine Comedy,” in particular.
She spent two years working with stylists and in e-commerce, all the
while, dreaming of her collection, and creating it by night. With no
formal training, and a vehement obsession with the idea of melancholy
and imperfection, Alighieri was officially launched in 2014.
