Item Description

Pollucite, an uncommon Zeolite Group Species, is RARE from the historic pegmatites at Newry. This is an old-time, nearly solid mass of glassy, translucent, granular pollucite from the famous Dunton Gem Quarry and comes from an old East Coast Collection. The Art Montgomery label dates from 1937-41 and the Hugh Ford label dates from 1946-57. Highly desirable and very seldom on the market with such excellent labelling.
