What are Howlite Beads?
Howlite beads are known for their beautiful white or gray tones, often webbed with fine gray or black veining. This natural stone embodies simplicity and sophistication, making it a favorite among jewelry makers worldwide. Our howlite beads carve easily and polish beautifully, allowing you to craft everything from minimalist necklaces to statement earrings. Because of their neutral palette, you can pair them with just about any gemstone or metallic accent in your collection.
History and Discovery of Howlite Stone
Discovered in 1868 by geologist Henry How in Nova Scotia, howlite quickly gained popularity for its gentle appearance and adaptable nature. Its natural deposits are limited, making genuine howlite gemstones a unique and valuable addition to your bead box. Over the years, artisans have cherished howlite not only for its beauty but also for its versatility—it can be dyed to mimic turquoise or other colorful stones while keeping the same smooth texture and natural energy.
Metaphysical and Healing Properties of Howlite
Many jewelry enthusiasts and crystal lovers value howlite for its believed calming properties. Known as a “stone of awareness,” howlite is said to encourage patience, tranquility, and emotional balance. When used in meditation or worn daily, it’s thought to help quiet restless thoughts and promote emotional understanding. While these properties are spiritual in nature, you may find that wearing your howlite jewelry adds a peaceful, grounded energy to your everyday life.
How to Use Howlite in Your Jewelry Designs?
Your creativity truly shines when you design with howlite. These beads blend beautifully with metals such as silver or gold and contrast stunningly against darker gemstones. Try using larger round howlite beads for bold statement pieces, or incorporate smaller ones into layered necklaces or chakra-inspired bracelets. Because of its neutral color, howlite complements nearly every style—from boho and earthy designs to elegant, modern looks—making it a must-have stone for your craft projects.
Caring for and Maintaining Howlite Beads
To preserve the natural luster of your howlite jewelry, handle your pieces gently. Avoid exposing them to strong chemicals, perfumes, or prolonged moisture. Simply wipe your beads with a soft, dry cloth and store them in a protective pouch when not in use. With a little care, your howlite pieces will stay as beautiful as the day you crafted them.
