In 1972, an immense pocket of superb tourmaline was uncovered in Maine, Dunton Quarry Mine, Newry Hill, USA. These high-quality crystals ranged in color from beautiful greens and rich pinks to piercing blues. From this material, master gem carver Gerhard Becker of Idar-Oberstein, Germany, created a series of miniature carvings of birds, mammals, and fish native to North America. This series of pieces is a gift of John Staver.
