October 19, 2020The Day’s Jewelers company was founded in Maine in 1914 by the Davidson family. The first store was opened on Congress Street in Portland, and although the company has changed hands, expanded, shrunk, and expanded again, the company will always have deep Maine roots. We at Day’s celebrate our Maine roots with stunning Maine tourmaline. In February 2019, we made the decision to purchase nearly 3700 carats of tourmaline mined right here in Maine (read the story here.) Since then, we’ve been working hard to create beautiful pieces that capture the essence of Maine, both in look and with their story. ...Read more »

August 19, 2019As my summer internship is coming to an end and school is set to begin again, I can’t help but feel a sense of appreciation, not only for Day’s Jewelers as a company, but the stone I’ve been able to work closely with the last few months, Maine tourmaline. I was given a huge amount of responsibility to take some of the last remaining mined Maine tourmaline, and transform the stones into beautiful pieces of finished jewelry for our customers to gift and be gifted with for years to come. Pictured is one of our new arrivals this summer, the River Stone ...Read more »This entry was posted in: Day's Jewelers , Jewelers in Maine , maine jewelers , jewelers that care , New Hampshire jeweler , Maine jeweler , new hampshire jewelers , new england jewelers , maine tourmaline , maine tourmaline jewelry , watermelon tourmaline , bi-colored tourmaline , tourmaline maine gemstone , tourmaline , jewelers maine

In February of 2019, Day’s Jewelers acquired nearly 3,700 carats of the last remaining mined Maine tourmaline from the Western Hills of Maine. The 3,700 carats are made up of both rough and polished gems – ranging in color from green, pink, bicolor, and amongst the rarest, indicolite tourmaline, which is a captivating deep blue. The investment was significant, but with the future of Maine tourmaline an uncertain one, Day’s jumped at the chance to ensure our customers will be able to purchase beautiful Maine tourmaline jewelry for generations to come.

Tourmaline is one of Maine's richest treasures. Maine tourmaline was first discovered in 1820 when two boys hiking in the hills near Paris, Maine, noticed a green sparkle from the base of an uprooted tree. Little did they know that eventually this area would boast one of the largest finds of tourmaline in North America's history! Maine tourmaline was the first gemstone mined in the United States by miners, starting at Mount Mica, in 1822.In 1971, tourmaline was adopted as the official gemstone of Maine. While Mount Mica was the first tourmaline mine in Maine, it is not the largest. The Dunton Mine is the most prolific ...Read more »This entry was posted in: maine tourmaline , maine tourmaline jewelry , watermelon tourmaline , bi-colored tourmaline , tourmaline maine gemstone
