What is Howlite?

Howlite is a mineral from the Calcite family. It originated in sedimentary rock formations and can be found in several locations such as the United States, Canada, and Mexico. This stone is known for its white appearance with brown or dark gray veins, giving it a similar look to ivory, and because of this resemblance to ivory, Howlite is often used as a substitute for this expensive material. It is a soft and easy to work with stone, which is why it is often used in decoration and jewelry. In jewelry, Howlite is used as a stone to make necklaces, earrings, and rings. It is also used as a decorative stone in more elaborate jewelry pieces that require additional shaping of each piece.

In addition, it is believed that Howlite has therapeutic properties, such as helping with relaxation and reducing stress. It is also used in meditation and spiritual healing.
