Isletta specializes in creating precious sensor shells for medical devices, specifically the Dexcom G7, to transform a continuous glucose monitor into an object of beauty. "As someone who wears a device every day, I’ve always loved jewelry, the way it makes you feel stylish and confident," said Isletta founder Chloe. "If I love adorning my ears and neck, why shouldn’t I be able to adorn the device that’s part of me too?" Now, the brand is on a mission to turn medical devices into style statements that are to be seen and celebrated, and Isletta's first release, The Founders Drop, features exclusive editions that won't be restocked in the same format.
The debut Isletta sensor shells, each crafted from 925 sterling silver, introduced four organically inspired forms: ASTRA, SOL, SWELL, and TIDE.
