768 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

A stunning 18ct gold and carved sardonyx portrait ring of Dante. Dante Alighieri was an Italian poet and moral philosopher best known for the epic poem The Divine Comedy, which comprises sections representing the three tiers of the Christian afterlife: purgatory, heaven and hell. It is a great work of medieval literature and considered the greatest work of literature composed in Italian. It is a philosophical Christian vision of mankind’s eternal fate. Dante is seen as the father of modern Italian, and his works have flourished since before his 1321 death. For any fan of Dante this is a special ring to wear.
