William Attardi on February 1, 2026

A marvel of engineering, this masterfully crafted 1.25″ surface mount fixture emits more than 1000 lumens, surpassing competitors with a single gentle beam of discreet quality illumination. With the implementation of Finch, a jewelry store— as well as many other applications—can enhance occupant comfort, improve the showcasing of merchandise and various design elements, and subtlety enforce advanced security measures, all while maintaining a sophisticated and elegant aesthetic sure to turn heads and profits. Finch is available in various lengths, finishes and inside colors on the bevel, which can be mixed and matched to create a unique design that complements the store’s aesthetic. The two-tone bevel finishes add an extra layer of elegance, echoing the luxury of the jewelry on display. For instance, gold-toned bevels could be used to echo the warmth of gold jewelry, or silver-toned ones for a modern, minimalist look.   Amerlux_DeltaDigest_Finch_rev.pdf

Telling Time – 12-hour time is a very ancient system that traces back to the Mesopotamian empires. They had a cultural fixation with the number 12, used a base-12 numerical system, and divided up most things into 12ths whenever possible – including day and night. The 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night system spread throughout Europe and the Middle East and has defied multiple attempts to change it over the centuries. Also, for anyone curious as to why there was such a love of the number 12, it was because that was how they counted on their hand. Look at your hand. Notice how each of your fingers minus your thumb has three easily identifiable parts to it. They used to count by using their thumb to count each part of the finger, much in the same way we count to 10 using our fingers today. So, 12 was the max you could count on one hand.
