Here is a more updated press release regarding Wachler Ultimate Expression. Make today the gr8est day ever!
Millionaires and Even Billionaires Wait in Line
Two brothers Glenn and Link Wachler follow in the tradition of Faberge and create jeweled sculptures for today’s Modern Royalty. Millionaires and Billionaires wait in line as each Wachler Ultimate Expression is commissioned and can take up to a year to complete.
Boca Raton, FL (PRWEB) March 13, 2005 -- Luxury Jeweled Objects are back and a Wachler Ultimate Expression is the best of the best. Each piece tells the story of an outstanding relationship and accomplishment with precious metals and gemstones. Glenn Wachler who started designing these jeweled sculptures in 1988 says, “Modern Royalty wants to express more personal meaning in their jeweled sculptures than the Russian Czars did with Faberge.”
Faberge and the Russian Czars began a new tradition in 1888 with the now famous eggs. It was agreed that the Easter gift would always have an egg shape and would hold a surprise. These projects became top priority of the company and were planned and worked on far in advance--a year or longer. The surprise was always kept secret.
Only fifty six Imperial eggs were ever made and the Imperial Easter egg collection commissioned by the last of the Russian Czars is the most celebrated. The celebration now continues with Glenn and his brother Link, an international award winning jewelry designer, who have a rich heritage in custom jewelry design that goes back to 1917 when their grandfather David Wachler started his first jewelry business in K? Germany.
Each piece is created specifically for the client to help them celebrate the special relationships and moments in their life. And like the Faberge Eggs they have many surprises contained within them.
One Wachler Ultimate Expression is an 18 karat yellow gold tree with a boy leaning next to it. There are 10 dangling diamonds within the tree representing the grandchildren of the receiver. The ground is covered with hundreds of emeralds and one special diamond representing the one grandchild that is with them in spirit. Within the tree are many other symbols that are meaningful to the owner like the poem that inspired it.
The owner said, "The beauty of the sculpture is so special, it says it all, each part and each symbol is so very important and beautiful to me. It honors me so greatly; you remembered the bonds that were ours exclusively. It’s my best present other than my husband and children."
A more recent sculpture the brothers are working on is a golden treasure chest encrusted with precious jewels. If the treasure chest is gold and diamonds then what’s on the inside. A small heart shaped hole allows you to get a glimpse of the ultimate treasure contained within. The owner has the only gold and diamond key but is willing to open it. You see his family sculpted in 18 karat yellow gold just like his favorite picture that he sent to the Wachler Brothers. The background celebrates his favorite spot in the world and symbols everywhere remind him how fortunate he is.
Link Wachler reminds us “a treasure chest is nothing without a treasure inside it.” The piece represents the material accomplishments of life as merely the container. The family within is the ultimate treasure.” Glenn adds, “It doesn’t matter if you are a billionaire or on welfare the ultimate treasures in life are the same, it’s all about our special relationships.” Each Wachler treasure chest we design and create celebrates those special relationships of our clients.
Some of our jeweled sculptures can be completed in 2 months and some have taken over a year. With millionaires and billionaires waiting in line the brother duo are committed to helping as many people express themselves with these Wachler Ultimate Expressions. There is talk of some limited edition sculptures to meet the demand but for now they are only doing custom commissions.
Each one is like an outstanding relationship they take time and a willingness to express oneself. We make them in precious metals so they will be a permanent representation of the way you feel. Remember, before you know it time can pass you by and only you get to decide if you will ultimately express life’s precious moments.
If you go to www.ultexp.com you will see how “Modern Royalty” is honoring and celebrating outstanding moments in their life. You can also view the TV show seen on the Style Network in 2005 which highlights the Wachler brothers first Ultimate Expression.
