Burchard Galleries is Gearing up for The Biggest Best Auction in Its 35 year History October 18th

St. Petersburg, FL, USA, October 11, 2020 -- A pair of handsome, centuries-old chambers that served for a time as executive dining rooms for Schenley Imports Company, the former New York City-based liquor company in the Empire State Building, and then later exhibited at the St. Petersburg Museum in Florida, will be part of a massive, 600-lot auction slated for October 18th by Burchard Galleries.

The Sunday auction event, starting promptly at 12 o’clock noon, will be held live in the gallery (with social distancing and other protocols in place), at 2528 30th Avenue North, St. Petersburg. Internet bidding will be provided by LiveAuctioneers.com and Invaluable.com. Telephone and absentee bids will be accepted. Many photos can be viewed now, at www.burchardgalleries.com.

“This is the best auction in the 35-year history of Burchard Galleries,” said Jeffrey Burchard, owner of Burchard Galleries. “We’re offering lifelong collections of important treasures, plus the contents of a Lake Hollingsworth mansion in Lakeland.” The catalog is jam-packed with Tiffany art glass and lamps, Steuben pieces and Russian sterling silver objets de vertu including Faberge.

The list continues with important paintings, prints and sculptures by listed artists, to include Anthony Thieme (Dutch, 1888-1954) and Peter Max (German-American, b. 1937), plus vintage lamps and lighting, two large Stella music boxes, European porcelains, Galle, Moser, Baccarat, Lalique, Sevres, Dresden, Meissen, Capo-di-Monte and even a 1901 Stieff/Shaw grand piano.

Also offered will be antique Chinese carved jade, snuff bottles, important grandfather clocks, elegant 1920s French dining and bedroom furnishings, KPM porcelain plaques, Asian bronzes, Mougin Brothers French pottery, miniature clocks, vintage Victorian and Deco purses, African masks, sterling silver services, estate Oriental carpets, diamond watches and palatial chandeliers.

But the auction’s undisputed headliners are the so-called Schenley Rooms, which came into existence in England long before the company was founded. They are true gems of English Georgian and Jacobean décor. The historic chambers were painstakingly taken apart, crated and brought over to the New World, to typify what company officials called “Schenley elegance.”

One of the rooms, called the Georgian Room, was built during the Georgian period (1714-1830), during the reign of the Georges. The circa 1740 room is fully paneled, with a fireplace mantel, and surrounds a 560-square-foot area. It was originally from the Bull Inn, Guild Hall, London.

The Jacobean Room dates to the Jacobean Age, which began in 1603 with the death of Queen Elizabeth I. The 350-square-foot room, with stained glass windows and a fireplace, dates to 1610 and undoubtedly came from a typical early Jacobean, many gabled house, in the heart of London.

Around 1960, when Schenley moved its headquarters from the Empire State Building to new quarters in Rockefeller Center, the decision was made to not provide space for the new rooms. That’s when Theodore “Ted” Wiehe, Schenley vice president, approached officials at the soon-to-be-built St. Petersburg Museum if they’d like to exhibit the rooms, and they quickly agreed.

The rest of the auction catalog may not have as colorful a back story as the Schenley Rooms, but they’re no less important. The 15 art glass lamps include wonderful examples by Tiffany & Co., Handel, Duffner & Kimberly, LeGras, Schneider, E. Miller and others. Also offered will be Satsuma porcelains, Ginbari cloisonne and more than 100 perfume bottles and large factices.

The list of noted, listed artists is lengthy and includes names like Robert Butler, Jim Carson, Ted Coconis, Henry Robertson Craig, Edward Curtis, Herbert Laurence Davidson, Pierre De Belay, Robert Elwell, Vassily Grachev, Patrick Hennessy, Eugene Lancerag, Nikolai Lieberich (bronze bear), Josef Lorenzl, Pierre Jules Mene, Alphonse Mucha, Walter Schott and Syd Solomon.

Other artists include David Stribbling, David Tutwiler, David Wilkie, David Bruno Zach and others. The more than 75 pieces of fine estate jewelry will feature diamond brooches and rings, Mexican and Southwest Indian jewelry, Orianne gemstone jewelry, an emerald and diamond bracelet and more. Also sold will be Russian icons, Japanese watercolors and Asian bronzes.

Previews will be held by appointment only, from Wednesday, Oct. 14, thru Saturday, Oct. 17, from 12 noon to 6 pm in the Burchard Galleries showroom. Watch the website for an upcoming gallery tour video, at www.burchardgalleries.com. To make an appointment, call 800-520-2787.

Euro Energy Offers Top Quality Lightweight Li Ion Battery Solution

Serving both the industrial and the medical industry, Euro Energy is a leading designer and manufacturer of a wide array of batteries. Known for its precision and professionalism, the company is further considered as the No. 1 medical battery supplier to the UK National Health Service.

One of their most popular lines of batteries is their standard Li-Ion battery pack assemblies — which include the 7.4v lithium ion battery pack and 14.8v lithium ion battery.

Batteries for Versatile Applications

Euro Energy produces their Lithium Ion batteries from Lithium Cobalt Oxide using 18650 sized cells. To cater to different projects and applications, they offer their Lithium Ion battery packs in commonly requested voltages — including 7.4v Lithium Ion battery pack and 14.8v Lithium Ion battery. Their batteries’ capacities are also wide-ranging: from 2600mAh to 10400mAh.

If you’re also looking for a fast and cost-effective route for your project’s completion, sourcing batteries from them is a wise move. Their lightweight portable battery solution doesn’t need to undergo the rather costly UN38.3 testing.

Their product catalogue also includes Lithium Ion battery pack chargers and other charging solutions.

But why opt for Li-Ion batteries? Here are their best advantages:

They have a high energy density, allowing them to operate longer between charges.

They have a lower rate of self-discharge — around 5% in the first four hours, further falling to 1 to 2% per month. This makes them a more durable rechargeable battery.

They have a higher cell voltage. This means that you would need less cells for a large battery application.

They are available in various types, making them applicable for several uses.

They don’t require priming; they are already supplied operational.

They are easy to maintain.

Competitive Prices, Customisation Services

Euro Energy acknowledges that if you have a large-scale project, your battery requirements will also be higher than the usual. With this in mind, they offer price breaks to ensure that they remain competitive while giving you top-quality products.

But apart from their flexible pricing, they also offer customisation in their products themselves. For instance, they can add an injection-moulder or vacuum-formed cases to help their batteries complement the look of your project.

They have a dedicated team they can deploy if the battery you require is not yet included in their roster. Their technicians are trained not only to design and manufacture durable batteries — but also to observe utmost professionalism when meeting and communicating with their clients.

The Euro Energy Advantage

Backed by nearly four decades of experience, Euro Energy specialises in offering battery solutions to both the industrial and medical industries.

Photobooth Company Pivots to Virtual Events Though COVID 19 Crisis

As this year’s COVID-19 emergency has led to countless live events being canceled, businesses that depend on live events for their livelihood have been challenged to rethink and retool in order to survive. “The event industry was the first to be hit and it will be among the last to come back,” says Josh Daniels. Daniels and his partner Caroline Winata own and operate Sacramento-based Giggle and Riot Funbooths.

Sacramento, California, United States., October 12, 2020 -- As this year’s COVID-19 emergency has led to countless live events being canceled, businesses that depend on live events for their livelihood have been challenged to rethink and retool in order to survive. “The event industry was the first to be hit and it will be among the last to come back,” says Josh Daniels. Daniels and his partner Caroline Winata own and operate Sacramento-based Giggle and Riot Funbooths. “A lot of companies in the event industry are closing,” Winata says.“So we’re doing all we can to adjust to that.”Winata and Daniels have taken this challenge as an opportunity. The partners have expanded their business deeper into the virtual realm, creating virtual photo booths to go with the virtual events now being held by families, universities, corporations and non-profits. “We’re still doing weddings, and people still want to remember their weddings,” says Winata.

“We had a wedding recently that was held simultaneously in California and India, so we set up several cameras and a web gallery so that all the guests and family members could participate in the festivities.”

Other events Giggle and Riot Funbooths are working with include “back to school” events, online conferences, fundraisers, even a formal gala, complete with a virtual red carpet.

“Organizations are getting creative, and we’re a part of that,” says Daniels. “We worked the San Francisco AIDS Foundation when they held their gala. They even had meals that people could order and have delivered. This time is challenging, but it is an excellent time to be creative.”

These virtual events may not be the same as an in-person gathering, but they have certain advantages, and Giggle and Riot Funbooths are aiming to make the most of these unexpected advantages.

“For instance, these are not always synchronous events, so they are not so limited to one moment in time,” says Daniels. “We’re offering more go-at-your-own-pace options now. These ‘events’ can live longer online than they would in person.”

Giggle and Riot Funbooths is well-positioned to deal with the current situation; they have long combined high technology with their warehouse of creative props and outlandish costumes to enliven their photo booths. But with props and costumes not possible at this time, they have delved deeper into virtual possibilities, aiming to make their fun booths as much fun as they were before - but virtually. Virtual props are just part of their custom offerings.

“Each event we do in all these cases has been custom-designed to meet the event design and brand design,” says Daniels.

“We’re also looking at backgrounds, so that people who are getting married, say, and wanted to go to Asia for their honeymoon, can play with that.”

Part of Giggle and Riot’s way of adjusting to this “new normal” is in showing their clients how to use the photos and videos that are created to maximum effect beyond the momentary event.

“A big part of what we’re working on is making sure it’s an effective tool for our clients, so it’s engaging with them and showing them how they can promote it on their social media,” says Daniels. “It’s a way of getting people engaged, and capturing people’s moments, and giving them something from the event to remember.

“In some ways, it’s exactly the same as it’s always been,” adds Winata. “It’s about fun and engagement and participation.”

Winata and Daniels have also continued to expand their adjacent business of teaching other photo booth owners around the United States how to adjust their businesses in this difficult time. Ever-creative, the duo says that they have long aimed to help other business owners to up their game: “We all operate in different areas, with different clients,” says Daniels. “We aren’t competitors, we are all part of the same community. We want to keep our industry healthy.”

But one thing is for sure, says Daniels: “Things aren’t going to be the same even after they go back to normal. Even once we can do weddings live again, there will still be a virtual element. The virtual tools we’re creating are going to be great for events forever because organizations are always looking to get people more involved.”

“The goal is always to connect people,” adds Winata. “Whether it’s in-person or virtual, the goal is to help create and capture good memories of the event, whether it’s a wedding or a graduation or a gathering of like-minded people.

“The ways we do that are changing, by necessity,” she adds. “But the goals remain the same: to connect, to engage, to allow people to be together, however possible. And we’re going to keep doing that, by whatever means we can.”

About Giggle and Riot Funbooth:
Giggle and Riot Funbooths was created by the top notch wedding photographers at Milou and Olin Photography so that guests can have a non-lame photo booth experience at events. We believe the world needs a little more woohoo and a little less snoresville. Amazing fun for drunk people (and their designated drivers), birthday parties, corporate events, weddings, engagements, and just about anything else you can think of! We arrive early to roll out the red carpet as you shimmy, shake and mug for the camera in our innovative, open air photo booth. Giggle and Riot Funbooths specializes in custom photo activations.

Supportsoft Technologies Develops Cutting Edge Software Across Industries

Earns Formidable Reputation for The Sheer Diversity of Its Offerings

SYDNEY - Oct. 12, 2020 - PRLog -- One of Australia's foremost software developers, Supportsoft Technologies has earned a legendary reputation for the sheer range of the myriad kinds of software that it has created for a diverse set of clients across vectors. According to Saurabh Bhatt, Director Sales, "There are software development companies and there are software development companies, but what we deliver is bespoke solutions that are just right for the products and services in question."

All manner of software is deployed in computers, smartphones, iPads and so many devices, helping them perform a slew of functions that make them so indispensable to our modern lives. It is, therefore, important that the software that is put in to make that possible is out of the top drawer. This is something that Supportsoft Technologies does extremely well. They really have very few peers when it comes to the sheer range of software application.

Says Sandeep Singh Chauhan, Operations Director, "This is where we are heads and shoulders above our competitors. We create stellar software that sees use in an incredibly long list of companies, industries and departments. These include Software and Portals, Management Software, Industrial Software, Retail Software, Hotel Management Software and Delivery and Takeaway Management and so on."

That apart, Software Technologies is known to cater to the software needs of sectors like HR and Payroll, Event Management , Travel, Healthcare, Disability Services Management and Construction Site Management. They are able to meet the custom software needs of so many diverse sectors on account of the fact that they pay very careful attention to the exact requirements of the clients. There is no place for a one-size- fits all kind of approach in Software Technologies' scheme of things and this reflects in the fact that their clientele is an extremely satisfied one. It is not for nothing that they are renowned both as a custom software development company as well as an enterprise software development company of considerable repute.

It is not surprising therefore that they have been able to develop long term relationships with most of their clients. Not only do they serve their customers well, they also take care to incorporate their feedback by way of product improvements and upgradations that they carry out from time to time. Not just that, their crack team of software developers is always exploring the frontiers of technology to create ever better software.  Going forward, one can expect them to expand their footprint all across Australia in an even more extensive manner.
