Dyed Howlite Gemstone Chip Beads - 36" String


Price: £2.50 quantity:  

Howlite was discovered in Nova Scotia, Canada in the nineteenth century. It is an opaque stone which forms irregular nodules. Howlite is usually white or grey with a web like pattern of black marbling and has a sub vitreous lustre.

As howlite is quite a porous stone, it is quite often dyed a bright blue to imitate turquoise (sometimes known as turquenite) and is occasionally dyed a dark blue to imitate lapis lazuli.

Howlite is quite a soft mineral, measuring 3.5 on Moh's scale of hardness.

A quantity of beautiful dyed howlite chip beads. These beads will be supplied on a temporary string measuring approximately 36 inches long.

These beads are slightly larger than our other chip beads, measuring between about 7-11mm
