Howlite is a naturally white or cream-coloured mineral marked with grey to black veining that runs through the stone in web-like patterns. Its porous structure makes it suitable for dyeing, allowing it to appear in different colours, including blue and red. Bellaire Wholesale offers a selection of howlite beads, from natural-looking white varieties to coloured options, in different shapes, sizes, and finishes for jewellery makers.
Howlite beads are versatile for creating bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and other jewellery designs. White howlite offers a neutral base that complements different colour palettes, while coloured varieties can add contrast and vibrancy. Pair howlite with natural stones and glass beads, and complete your designs with findings.

FAQs
What is howlite?
Howlite is a naturally white to cream-coloured mineral marked with grey to black veining. It is commonly used in bead form for jewellery making and can also be dyed to produce different colours.
Is howlite the same as turquoise?
No. Howlite and turquoise are different minerals. Howlite is naturally white with grey veining but is sometimes dyed blue to resemble turquoise.
What colours of howlite beads are available?
Bellaire Wholesale offers howlite beads in white, blue, red, and other available colour variations. The selection includes different bead shapes, sizes, and finishes.
Are all howlite beads naturally coloured?
No. Natural howlite is typically white or cream with grey veining. Because howlite is porous, it can absorb dyes to produce other colours. Coloured howlite beads may be dyed rather than naturally occurring in those shades.
Is howlite a soft or hard stone?
Howlite is a relatively soft mineral, with a Mohs hardness of approximately 3.5. It benefits from gentle handling and storage to help prevent scratches and surface damage.
What designs suit howlite beads?
Howlite beads suit a variety of jewellery designs, including bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and layered bead combinations. White howlite works well with neutral and earthy tones, while coloured howlite can add contrast and visual interest.
