Question 1

What is Howlite and how does it differ from white turquoise?

Accepted Answer

Howlite is a calcium boron silicate mineral naturally characterised by white or cream-white colour and grey veined patterns. True white turquoise has a different mineralogical composition (copper aluminium phosphate). Howlite is a beautiful natural stone in its own right, not merely an imitation.

Question 2

How many stones are in one pack?

Accepted Answer

Each pack contains approximately 100 g of small White Howlite maroccas. Typically 5–12 pieces per pack, depending on stone size.

Question 3

Why should I avoid prolonged soaking of howlite in water?

Accepted Answer

Howlite has a porous structure that can absorb water, which may cause surface damage, discolouration, or fading of the pattern. Wiping briefly with a damp cloth is safe, but prolonged soaking is not recommended.
