Price: £10
This is a very bold and striking necklace comprising large pieces of died howlite with a silver plated fitted clasp.. Howlite is a gemstone and relatively rare. It’s mined only in parts of the U.S. and in Canada, where it was first discovered in 1868 in Nova Scotia. Howlite resembles white marble or porcelain thanks to its milky-grey colour. It has a porous surface and opaque transparency. It usually has darker or black veins running through it but can sometimes be found with no veins whatsoever and pure white in colour. Howlite can be dyed into other colours. It’s frequently used as an imitation of turquoise, as it tends to display the matrix patterns that turquoise has.. This piece displays a very good simulation and large necklaces such as these are loved by fashion icons like Iris Apfel - although hers are the real McCoy!

The tortoiseshell style decoration displays considerable and pleasing variegation with an attractive selection of colours in close imitation of the original.
