History

Howlite was named after a Canadian named Henry How described the mineral found in 1868. It was originally called, “silico-boro-calcite,” but the name was changed in his honor. Unfortunately not much else is known about howlite. The stone is typically used in jewelry, and even dyed to resemble other stones.
