About Lela Fine Art Crystal, designer & artist Sondra Lee 

Sondra Lee has a deep passion for beauty, she has an innate gift to create and express it effortlessly. Sondra is a visionary artist of several mediums. Currently she has a beautiful Fine Art Crystal line that will take your breath away... she has combined two mediums, crystal & Japanese clay handmade orchids, seeing is believing! It's hard to believe the orchids are not real! 

One early morning, it was time to get ready for work... She was a single mother of three, owner of a small gallery in Carmel, CA somewhat exhausted with her daily regimen... A mom first, & creating the majority of the designs and art work for display and sale in her gallery. Sondra is very passionate, but always imagining an easier way... This particular morning while showering, it was though she was struck by a beam of golden light... It permeated through her soul... A vision so beautiful, a crystal platter appeared, encased was a white phalaenopsis orchid. There were two bands of shimmering gold, her breath taken away... She wrapped herself in a towel, dancing around the house, chanting, Thank you God, thank you... !!! 

Sondra's journey began, quite challenging, mediums she loved but was not familiar with creating. With tenacity and passion she pursued her education in order to master her vision. She was never promised it would be easy... Several years later, with pride and gratitude, she is ready for its unveiling... "Lela," Orchids in Crystal, Fine Art Platters. May each piece open and touch your heart as it has Sondra Lee's. 

Sondra Lee, contemplating what to name her creation? In meditation, was revealed the name "Lela," reflecting, Goddess of Wealth and Beauty... How perfect! Each piece is signed, "Lela," in 23Kt gold. A lesson in life, "Never give up on your dreams... and never under estimate yourself and what you are capable of!" Blessings to all...
