*CLOSEOUT* Dusty Rose Howlite Sand (Dyed) from Zimbabwe, Medium Crush, Sand Size (2mm - 0.25mm) for Stone Inlay, Mineral Art, or Rings

Howlite is a natural, opaque white mineral that is generally dyed in a variety of colors to mimic other minerals, such as turquoise. This howlite was dyed red, giving it a nice dusty-rose pink color after it was crushed. This crushed material also has tiny, dark red specks, giving it some color variation.

Our medium material is considered to be sand sized (fine sand to very coarse sand), ranging between 0.25 millimeters to 2 millimeters. This size is great for most woodworking inlays, memorial and resin jewelry, orgonite pyramids, ring inlay, resin molds, mosaics, terrariums, bezel cups, resin art, embellishments, and metaphysical projects.

EXTRA LISTING INFO

We prioritize providing high-quality materials for all artisans; therefore, our stones are natural and untreated unless otherwise specified. Photos may showcase both wet and dry crushed stone. Please note that wet stones can appear darker, which may resemble the finished look of the material after it's sealed with an adhesive.

We use the metric system for all size measurements, with units in millimeters (mm). Refer to the product photos for a visual guide using a metric ruler (cm/mm).

CLOSEOUT CORNER

Our "Closeout Corner" consists of leftover material from our regular stock that has some imperfections. This is due to natural factors such as: color variations, the presence of host rock, the presence of other auxiliary minerals, and/or staining due to natural weathering processes. Closeout crushed material is offered at a discount price and is a great option for makers who prefer a more rustic look with natural variation. 

***Closeout deals are not a part of our regular stock. These deals are limited in quantity while supplies last. Each batch will be different in terms of color ratios.***
