Howlite Hexagon Bracelet — rendered visualisation, studio photography pending

Hand-strungHexagon

This is a computer-rendered visualisation, not a photograph.

Each piece is made by hand in small numbers, so we render it rather than photograph a duplicate. The image shows the form, the material, the finish and the proportion — it is not a photograph of the exact piece you will receive, and natural stone varies from one piece to the next. Write to us and we will photograph the actual piece in stock, with its weight and measurements, before you buy.

Card payments are handled by our payment provider with 3-D Secure 2. We never see or store your card number.

Six flat faces to every bead: an architectural strand rather than a smooth curve. Howlite is a borate mineral, white or pale grey with a web of dark veins, and it is far softer than the stones it is usually mistaken for.

Origin: Nova Scotia, Canada
Cultivar: Howlite
Harvest: Strung by hand in 2024
SKU: CY-JW-018

Howlite is a borate mineral, white or pale grey with a web of dark veins, and it is far softer than the stones it is usually mistaken for. Most turquoise-coloured howlite on the market is dyed, and honest sellers say so; undyed howlite is a quiet, chalky white and is priced as what it is.

Six flat faces cut around each bead, so the strand shows a broken line of edges rather than a smooth curve. It takes the same work as faceting but the effect is architectural — it suits a metal or a matte stone far better than anything translucent.

Deliberately built off-centre, with the visual weight placed to one side of the wrist rather than at the middle. It is a composition rather than a pattern, so each strand is laid out by eye and no two come out the same.

Sizing: the strand is strung on a doubled elastic core with a knotted finish, and it is made in three lengths — a snug 16 cm, the standard 18 cm, and a loose 20 cm. Beads are graded by hand before stringing, so the strand you receive is matched for size and tone from the first bead to the last. Every bracelet is strung to order in small numbers; if you would like the exact strand photographed before it ships, ask and we will send you the picture.

Care: Soft and porous. It will take up dye from clothing and darken with hand cream, so put it on last.

We dispatch within 48 hours of your order, from our warehouse in China, with tracking on every parcel.

We do not quote a delivery date. Once a parcel leaves us it is carried by an international courier and cleared by customs in your country, and a date we cannot control is a date we will not promise. The tracking number, which you get when the label is created, shows every scan to your door.

Shipping is complimentary on orders over CAD 79.00$; below that a flat CAD 9.50$ applies. HST (13%) is calculated at checkout. Duties and import taxes are the recipient's responsibility.

Unopened tins can be returned within 30 days for a full refund. If a tea is not to your taste, tell us — we would rather send you something you like than keep the money.

We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, JCB, Diners Club and China UnionPay through our payment provider's local card gateway, protected by 3-D Secure 2 authentication. Your bank may ask you to confirm the payment in your banking app or with a one-time code.

Card details are entered on our checkout and transmitted directly to the payment provider over TLS. They are never written to our database — we only keep the card brand and the last four digits so you can recognise the charge on your statement. All prices are in CAD.
