INVESTMENTThe Capstone Pyramid, It’s All About Fostering Four Core Life ValuesThrough The Creation Of Crystal With A Timeless Intrinsic Value There is an old saying, “There are some people who know the price of everything and the value of nothing.” And as our Irish friends like to say, “The Capstone Pyramid is a considered purchase.” It is created for the person who can truly appreciate authentic hand-craftsmanship and timelessly enduring aesthetic value. The Rich History Of Tyrone Crystal Tyrone Crystal is a handmade crystal manufacturing company in Killybrackey Dungannon, County Tyrone in Northern Ireland, which has a well deserved international reputation for producing fine quality crystal products. Tyrone Crystal traces its roots back to1771, when Benjamin Edwards founded a company in county Tyrone Northern Ireland. Father Austin Eustace revitalized the company in the late 1960’s to create more employment in the Dungannon area of County Tyrone. He placed an advertisement for master glass blowers in a national newspaper and it providentially attracted two Austrians (a master blower and a master craftsman) who were hiking across England at the time and read the advertisement. These master craftsmen came to Tyrone and joined the company to train a new generation of employees in the art and craft of glass blowing. They subsequently set up a new glass blowing shop in Dungannon that practiced the time-honored traditional ways of hand-craftsmanship. In 1988 Tyrone was awarded an ISO 9000 for quality, the youngest glasshouse in the British Isles to gain this coveted quality standard. A new factory, built in 1990, is also a tourist attraction. Tyrone Crystal acquired Tipperary Crystal in 2000 as part of an investment plan that also spent £500,000 on a new visitors' centre that opened in 2001. Today Tyrone Crystal still makes mouth blown hand-crafted crystal that is sold to discerning buyers across the world. The tour of Tyrone Crystal is as unique as the crystal and an art worth seeing. Visitors from around the world take up to 40 minutes to view and talk with the master craftsmen on site. The Investment Value and Your Charitable Dividend In terms of the U.S. Dollar, your investment is in the $500 range depending on rate of exchange. When you purchase a Capstone Pyramid for a child on the occasion of her or his birth, and that child lives to be just 70-years old, the investment cost for the lifetime possession of this enduring personalized treasure is only 0.019 cents per day. That’s why we say that it is an enduring value of timeless quality that will be passed down from one generation to the next. In addition, through our not-for-profit corporation, 70% of the proceeds from the purchase of a hand-crafted and personally engraved Capstone Pyramid will benefit children and teachers at the International YMCA of Jerusalem, Israel and The New City School in St. Louis, Missouri USA. It is a wonderful dividend that results from your generosity and appreciation of authentic enduring value. We thank you for helping to foster LOVE, TRUTH, LIFE and UNITY.
