Ascending Optics LLC Brings Timeless Craftsmanship to Life with Danbury Mint Pewter Collection – A New Era of Detail & Collectibility

St. Helens, OR – November 8, 2023 – Ascending Optics LLC, a US-based company specializing in precision optical solutions and high-quality collectible enhancement, today announced a strategic partnership to revitalize and expand the renowned Danbury Mint pewter collection. Located at 364 S 6th St, St. Helens, OR, 97051-2516, and reachable at 626-271-4857, Ascending Optics is injecting new life and detail into these classic collectables, promising a richer experience for seasoned collectors and a welcoming introduction for new ones. For decades, the Danbury Mint has been a household name synonymous with exquisitely crafted pewter collectibles – from iconic cars and trains to historical figures and wildlife. However, recent years have seen the collection’s availability dwindle, and the level of detail collectors expect hasn’t always kept pace with modern possibilities. Ascending Optics stepped in with a clear mission: to honor the legacy of the Danbury Mint while elevating the collectibility and visual impact of each piece. “We’re incredibly excited to be partnering with such a respected brand,” says a spokesperson for Ascending Optics LLC. “The Danbury Mint holds a special place in many people’s hearts, and we felt a responsibility to not just continue the tradition, but to improve it. We believe we have the technology and the passion to do just that.” What’s New? A Closer Look at the Enhanced Collection Ascending Optics isn’t just repackaging existing molds. They’ve undertaken a significant investment in refining the production process, focusing on two key areas: detail enhancement and finish quality. Sharper Detail Through Precision Optics: This is where Ascending Optics' expertise truly shines. The company, traditionally focused on optical components for various industries, realized their technology could be applied to the mold creation and casting process of pewter collectibles. Using advanced optical metrology and precision machining, they’ve refined the existing molds and are creating new molds with significantly higher resolution. “Think about it,” explains the spokesperson. “Pewter is a fantastic material for capturing detail, but the detail has to be in the mold to begin with. We’re talking about microscopic improvements that add up to a massive difference in the final product. A subtle curve on a classic car fender, the intricate texture of an animal's fur, the lines on a historical figure’s face – these are the things we’re focusing on.” This isn’t just cosmetic. The enhanced detail allows for a more realistic and engaging experience for collectors. Pieces feel more substantial, more lifelike, and more valuable. Superior Finish – A Brighter, More Durable Collectible: Beyond the mold itself, Ascending Optics has also revamped the finishing process. They’ve moved to a multi-stage polishing and protective coating system that yields a brighter, more durable finish. “Older pewter pieces often tarnished over time,” notes the spokesperson. “We’ve developed a specialized coating that protects the pewter from oxidation, keeping it looking its best for decades. It’s also incredibly resistant to scratches and wear, so collectors can display their pieces with confidence.” The new finish isn’t just about protection. It also enhances the reflectivity of the pewter, making the details pop and adding a touch of elegance. What Can Collectors Expect? Ascending Optics is rolling out the enhanced Danbury Mint collection in phases, starting with some of the most popular and sought-after models. Classic Cars: Expect to see iconic vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Corvette, and Volkswagen Beetle reproduced with unparalleled detail. The curves, chrome accents, and even the tire treads will be sharper and more realistic than ever before. Historical Figures: From presidents and explorers to artists and scientists, the historical figure collection will feature meticulously crafted portraits that capture the essence of each individual. Trains & Transportation: The beloved train collection will be revitalized with accurate detailing of locomotives, passenger cars, and railway infrastructure. Wildlife & Animals: The wildlife series will showcase the beauty and majesty of animals from around the world, with lifelike textures and poses. Limited Edition Pieces: Ascending Optics plans to introduce limited-edition pieces with unique designs and finishes, catering to the most discerning collectors.
