Howlite Jewelry Collection

Howlite is a gemstone that is often confused for white turquoise. However, it is important for everyone to know that in most cases what is sold as white turquoise is nothing but Howlite. In reality, original white turquoise is so soft that it cannot be used in jewelry making. Howlite on the other hand physically looks a lot like Turquoise which is why it is sold by the name white turquoise. In fact, it is also dyed the color green-blue to look like Turquoise and sold as such. 

However, Howlite jewelry in itself is beautiful and can catch anyone’s attention. It is a mineral mostly found in Canada and is composed of hydrous calcium borate. It has a cauliflower-like head on its spider-like veins. Though Howlite is most commonly found in the color white, it has also been seen in grey color. It is an opaque stone and is porous. There are many names of Howlite, such as Sacred Buffalo, White Buffalo, White Turquoise, Lapis Howlite, Kaolinite and Boro Calcite.
