These celestial earrings inspired by the brightest star in earth's night sky, Sirius. Created from sterling silver, brass and copper with sterling ear wire. Fun facts: "What the naked eye perceives as a single star is actually a binary star system, Sirius appears bright because of both its intrinsic luminosity and its proximity to Earth. At a distance of 2.6 parsecs. Sirius is located in the constellation Canis Major – also known as the Big Dog – and is therefore known as the "dog star". It is over twenty times brighter than our sun and is twice as massive. At night time, Sirius is the brightest star in the sky and its blue-white glare never failed to amaze star gazers since the dawn of time. Associating Sirius with the divine and even considering it as the home of humanity's "great teachers" is not only embedded in the mythology of a few primitive civilizations: It is a widespread belief that has survived (and even intensified) to this day.

For Protozoan EarringsIt took me two tries to get an initial question answered, but once that was accomplished, everything went smoothly and satisfactorily. The finished earrings are unique, beautiful, and a good value. Lisa's work is therefore highly and enthusiastically recommended.

For Custom Medical Alert Bracelet In Sterling SilverI have had to wear a medical bracelet for many years. The last one I bought is really nice but looks exactly like what it is. I really wanted a bracelet that would be easily identified but at the same time something more my style and with the look of jewelry. I finally looked at images for medical bracelets and found a bangle I fell in love with. DeLisa Designs was able to perfectly duplicate the bangle I wanted. The wording is on the front but doesn't look medical other than the medical alert emblem in a different contrasting color and metal. It looks great on and is a perfect fit. Anyone in the medical field would definitely recognize the words, but my husband and I laugh because when the average person sees it they think it says something in a different language and complement of how different and beautiful it is. Thank You DeLisa for your great work and meeting my expectations!

For Matching anatomical hearts necklacesI am more than satisfied with Lisa and her work. I was a bit hesitant to have my idea made in silver instead of steel, but Lisa talked to me about the pros of sterling silver and I was convinced. I'm glad I decided to take the leap, the pendants look amazing and I'm sure they'll last for years to come.
