Announcing Our 1st Sponsor – Underwood Jewelers
October 10, 2010
It gives me great pleasure to announce the 1st official sponsor of this website!
Underwood Jewelers was founded in 1928 by industry legend Herbert F. Underwood. The jewelry store started as a diamond and watch store in Palatka, Florida, just prior to The Great Depression.
I only ever used William Yeoward wine glasses for my reviews and if you have not experienced true quality wine glasses before, you need to check out the selection at Underwoods. Now I do have to mention that these glasses are not inexpensive, however you are paying for true hand-crafted crystal. I guarantee that you will be able to see the difference in a good quality wine glass
So don’t get me wrong, on any other day of the week I am using El Cheapo wine glasses (if I ever broke one of my nice glasses I would cry), but if it’s a “nice” bottle, out comes the Yeoward!
The design inspiration for William Yeoward Crystal is drawn from antique pieces originally made in England and Ireland during the 18th and early 19th centuries. Every piece of William Yeoward Crystal is entirely made by hand using the same traditional methods employed over 150 years ago.
I am still slowly looking for other sponsors for the website, however I’m staying selective over who I work with. I put a good amount of time and money into this website and its ongoing progress, therefore I need companies that share a similar passion for hard-work, commitment to providing a high-quality product/service and whom are inline with the “theme” of this site.
