Rembrandt charms are perhaps one of the most sought after types of charms for charm bracelets and charm collections. This family owned company has been creating charms for over four decades, making them one of the best known of the charm manufacturing companies in the world.
Not all Rembrandt charms are available in all metals, but the vast majority of all charms made by the company are. The charms are available as silver charms, 10 and 14k gold, gold plate and white gold, and are priced according to the metal. There are over 100 employees that work for the company, all with their own specialization area.
To start with each one of the gold or silver charms created by Rembrandt begins with an idea or concept. From a picture, piece of art, replica or real landmark or item a craftsperson designs a miniature, in perfect detail. The miniature replicas can be made out of any type of material including metals or wood.
This exact replica of the design or picture is perfect in every detail. This is exactly what the gold or silver charms will look like after they have been manufactured. This replica is used to create outside molds and wax is poured into the mold and allowed to harden. These wax replicas are then attached to a board by a stand.
The board with the wax models is then placed in a container and the container is filled with a very fine type of plaster. This combination of plaster surrounding the wax copies is then heated or baked in an oven, causing the plaster to harden and the wax to completely dissolve. This is known as the Lost Wax Casting method because of this feature.
The result is a series of perfectly formed plaster molds into which hot metal is added and then allowed to cool back down. These form the silver charms or gold charms in their roughest form. From these charms additional painting, addition of accent gems or pieces as well as polishing will occur before they can be shipped to the retailers.
It is hard to actually imagine styles of silver charms or charms of yellow or white gold that Rembrandt charms doesn’t manufacture. Unlike many companies Rembrandt does not sell directly to consumers, but does offer charms and charm bracelets through local retailers.
