This howlite and coral necklace is not only eye-catching but also has a calming effect. Howlite is often believed to be an excellent stone for meditation, and has been used by practitioners to focus the mind. The grey spidery veins are thought to be like intrusive thoughts, to be acknowledged and then passed by. For this mental calming effect, some believers advocate placing howlite under an insomniac’s pillow, to promote serenity of mind and to empty it of distracting thought. Howlite is also thought to have properties that help relieve stress, open up memories of previous lives, strengthen bones and/or teeth—among other benefits. Red howlite serves as an eco-friendly alternative to endangered red coral. Necklace length 50 cm
This necklace pairs well with earrings of the same style from our handcrafted earring collection to create a surprisingly elegant set.
