History

Howlite is a fairly common white stone. It is characterized by gray inclusions that make it look veined; sometimes these inclusions are black or bluish.

Sometimes it can also be found colorless. It is often used as an imitation of the much more expensive turquoise and is therefore dyed blue. Howlite is used because its white color and porous nature make it suitable for imitations. Sometimes it is dyed red as a substitute for coral.

Howlite belongs to the borate class and was first described by Henry How in 1868. Transparent crystals are very rare. It was discovered in Canada, but today the main sources are found in Los Angeles and California. Sources in Marmara and Turkey are also very important.
