Buying guide
How do you choose agarwood and Nanhong agate?
Nanhong agate is a warm, opaque red agate whose name, nánhóng, means “southern red”. Agate is a variety of chalcedony, according to GIA, and a hard stone. Red agate beads have long served as marker beads on prayer strands. As a result, a red accent on agarwood reads as tradition, not decoration. The pairing is the warmest we offer, and agarwood and Nanhong agate suit mid to dark wood best.
How do you choose agarwood and Nanhong agate? First, look at the red in your video, in daylight. Nanhong agate ranges from orange-red to deep persimmon red. Next, count the red beads, since designs differ from one to several. For example, one or two red beads are enough to change a whole strand. Some styles also combine red agate with green jade. Finally, keep the strand away from radiators and hot cars, because agate dislikes sudden heat.
What to know before you buy agarwood & nanhong agate bracelets
In practice, agate is a hard stone and shrugs off daily knocks better than wood. Additionally, store the strand apart from amber or pearl, which agate can scratch.
