Derek Katzenbach, however, lives and works in a small Maine town, near the border with Canada. But does not intend to change: he started the journey in the jewelry industry in 20 years, he says of himself. A local blacksmith taught him the rudiments of jewelery. He\u00a0then worked for a jeweler in his city, Farmington, before specializing himself in gemology. Derek, however, has an advantage: Maine is famous for its mines, including also extracts the tourmaline, especially the two-tone. During the long winters of Maine, the designer has also learned to introduce particularly elaborate cuts, with shapes that often follow the irregularities of the stone. In the ring awarded in the contest, a two-color tourmaline are flanked tsavorite, garnet, and diamond.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_94722\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-94722\"
