Howlite Gemstone Beads
Scientifically known as a borate mineral, Howlite is predominantly found in its gleaming white form with veins of gray or black, which gives it an appearance similar to that of a spiderweb. This lightweight mineral is often used in carving and jewelry making due to its porous nature.
Facts: Howlite has a rich history rooted in its discovery in 1868 by Canadian chemist Henry How, who named it after himself. Originally uncovered in Nova Scotia, Howlite is appreciated not just for its beauty but also its role in crafting Native American art, particularly within the realm of ornamental carvings and as part of ritualistic jewelry. Its affordability and accessibility have made it a popular choice for artists and designers seeking to emulate more expensive stones like turquoise.
Metaphysical / Holistic: Despite its humble origins, Howlite is believed to carry significant metaphysical properties. It is often referred to as a stone of awareness, able to provide both calm and insight for its wearer. It's particularly valued for its supposed ability to reduce anxiety and tensions, promoting a sense of serenity and improved emotional expression.
