Shownotes

Her designs are raw, purposefully imperfect - and endlessly elegant. Back in 2012, feeling lost and a bit heartbroken, a (boring) one-day wax carving class set Rosh Mahtani on a completely new path. She ended up founding Alighieri, a jewelry collection inspired by Dante Alighieri's 'Divine Comedy.' Less than 5 years later, the business had an annual growth rate of 500% and was sold in big-name stores like Selfridges, Net-a-Porter, and Matches Fashion. As the brand moved into its new London showroom, Rosh talked to us about growing up in Zambia, why she hates being put in a box, and how she dove fearlessly into launching a meaningful jewelry brand, with no "official" jewelry making experience.
