Blue howlite is the color on this Pulse Blue Horizons strand, and blackwood and a black steel bead are the frame that keeps the blue from shouting. Each bead is 8 mm, about 0.31 inch, strung on black elastic stretch cord with a stainless steel accent bead. Everwood names the stone blue howlite. Howlite itself is a white stone, so the blue is a dye it has taken up, and that is the useful fact here: dyed howlite gives an even, flat blue with no veins of a second color, which is exactly what a wrist accent wants.

  • Even blue, no matrix. Each bead is one shade of blue rather than a mottled one, so the strand reads as color, not pattern.
  • Blackwood frame. Dark wood between the blue beads keeps the loop from looking like a child's bead string.
  • Chlorine lifts dye. Pool water is the one thing to keep this strand out of; rain and a rinse do it no harm.

Blue Howlite Bracelet on Blackwood

A blue howlite bracelet made of blue alone is loud; the same beads spaced with black wood become a single blue line broken into points, which is a strand a man can wear to work. The wood is doing more than framing: it is the lightest element on the cord, so the loop sits high and moves with the wrist rather than hanging off it, and its grain gives the dark beads a surface the blue ones do not have.

Why Dyed Howlite Stays Even

Howlite is porous, which is why it takes dye all the way through a bead rather than as a skin. The blue you see on day one is the blue inside the bead, so a scratch does not reveal white underneath. What does move the color is long sun and chlorine: years of direct sunlight soften the blue by a shade, and pool water can lift it faster. Leave it off for a swim and it keeps its color for years.

Blue Beside Black on the Wrist

Blue and black is a pairing menswear argued about for decades and settled in favor of the combination, and this strand is that argument in bead form. It sits under a navy sleeve as tone on tone, and against gray or white it becomes the single color on the arm. Pick this strand when the rest of the outfit is dark; on a pale summer shirt the blue reads brighter than it is.

Black Steel as the Signature

The accent bead is stainless steel with a black finish, so it belongs to the wood side of the strand rather than the blue side. In practice it disappears against the blackwood and shows only as a small dull point when it catches light, which is the right amount of metal for a strand whose subject is color. It comes in three sizes, S/M for a 6 to 7 inch wrist, M/L for 7 to 8 and L/XL for 8 to 9, and Everwood advises the larger size when your wrist sits on a boundary.

Pulse Blue Horizons in the Sun

Is blue howlite the same as turquoise? No. Turquoise is a blue-green mineral with its own dark veining; blue howlite is howlite dyed blue, which is why the color runs more even and why the bead trade uses it where turquoise would be uneven.

Will the blue rub off on skin or a sleeve? No. The dye is fixed inside the stone, and a finished bead does not transfer color to fabric or skin in normal wear.

What watch strap goes with blue and black beads? Black leather or black rubber. A brown strap introduces a third color and the blue stops being the point.
