“With its ultra-chic, retro spirit, Dante makes a bold statement in any space. Taking a cue from Mid-Century Modern pieces, this elegantly angular silhouette evokes an almost architectural feel with simple yet sophisticated details such as its solid wood base and tapered legs. The base is accentuated by antique brass nailheads. With generous proportions, this distinctive collection delivers a smart, stylish look while ensuring exceptional comfort and support.” —Arhaus
Walter M. Miller, Jr. A Canticle for Leibowitz (1956)
“And again: Vexilla regis inferni prodeunt… Forth come the banners of the King of Hell, whispered memory of that perverted line from an ancient commedia. It nagged like an unwanted tune in his thought.” (Part Two, Fiat Lux, p. 143 in the Bantam edition of 1988).

Donna Distefano’s “Elixir of Love” ring
“Our 22 karat gold and ruby Elixir of Love ring can hold your tiniest possessions. The griffin was a legendary creature with the body of lion and the head and wings of an eagle. The combination indicates both intelligence and strength. The griffin was thought to be an especially powerful and majestic creature, renowned for guarding treasures and other priceless possessions. Our griffin is carrying a Maltese cross which is considered a symbol of protection and a badge of honor representing loyalty, generosity, bravery, and helpfulness towards others. In Dante’s Divine Comedy Beatrice takes off into the Heavens to begin Dante’s journey through paradise on a flying Griffin that moves as fast as lightning.” —Donna Distefano
