Peter Muuller skillfully carves animals and birds out of precious stones and minerals. As there are no two identical creatures in nature, so each work of the carver is unique.
Peter Muuller was born and raised in Lucerne (Switzerland). Since 1979 he lives in Brazil with his wife Teja Vroom. Together they take part in various international exhibitions, where the master exhibits his creations.
