In Greek mythology, the Lyra constellation represents the lyre (harp) of Orpheus, the famous poet and musician whose music was so incredibly divine that the birds, the beasts, even the stones and the trees were charmed by the rhythm of his songs. The lyre was said to have been made by Hermes out of a tortoise shell. There are many stories about Orpheus and his incredible talent, but the most oft-told is the heartbreaking story involving his wife, Eurydice. It is said that Zeus, moved by Orpheus's grief and musical talent, placed his lyre among the stars as the constellation Lyra.

 

Our Lyra bar is sure to serenade you into a tranquil, relaxed state with its sophisticated and seductive blend of relaxing lavender, warm amber, rich black myrrh, earthy clary sage, and creamy vanilla. For extra dramatic effect, a dreamy swirling palette of purples and blues accented by flashy pink and whispers of gold makes for a beautiful presentation. Sweet dreams are made of this! Fans of our popular Sleeping Beauty blend will be thrilled for this new design reboot!
