As
the oldest embedment company in the United States, we offer over 71
years of expertise applied to all its castings. Our Sr. Lab
consultant, Robert Gayler, adds his 55 years of expertise to each
project and personally taught all of the company's employees
in the techniques used to create the best acrylic embedments and
fabrication possible. He was taught the process from the "Father
of Embedments", Larry Gayler, the founder and inventor of the current
embedment technique used by his company since 1949.
Crystal-like Products specializes in handcrafted unique and
one-of-a-kind custom pieces from custom hand crafted fine jewelry to
annual awards such and in its history has created the
"The American Comedy Awards", original American Music Awards, Art
Directors Club of Los Angeles Awards, L.A. Marathon Awards, Billboard
Awards, "Maggie Awards", "AVN Awards" and countless other awards. We
are often the originators of many of the Acrylic Award Castings
currently used in today's market place.
Every object reacts differently when
embedded in Lucite as every item has its own unique properties that can
affect the outcome of a finished embedment.
Because of this, it is
important to select a company that can offer the essential experience
necessary to cast that special custom piece or those large scale
production jobs.
