How do you choose a wooden bead bracelet in agarwood?
A wooden bead bracelet is a single strand of beads, and every strand on this page is turned from agarwood. Agarwood is the resinous heartwood of cultivated trees from Aquilaria species. It also goes by oud, oudh, aloeswood, eaglewood and gaharu. Resin gives the wood darker streaks, extra weight and a quiet, warm scent. Resin never spreads evenly, so no two strands look or weigh the same.
So how do you pick the right wooden bead bracelet? First, wrap a paper strip round the wrist just below the bone. Next, choose a bead size, because size sets the look of a wooden bead bracelet more than anything. Then choose the cut. For example, a round wooden bead bracelet shows soft rings, while a cube one shows clean lines. Finally, request a quote, and we weigh your strand on camera before you pay with PayPal. If the first wooden bead bracelet is not the one, ask for another.
What to know before you buy a wooden bead bracelet
Like any beaded bracelet in a natural material, a wooden bead bracelet in agarwood varies from strand to strand. In practice, the styles below run from round beads to cube, barrel, drum, disc and natural-form cuts. Additionally, some strands pair the wood with jadeite, Hetian jade, agate or amber.
Overall, this page gathers 74 styles of agarwood wooden bead bracelets: 74 single bracelets. You can pick beads anywhere from 5 to 20 mm. Also, 21 of these styles have real photos from our stock, 184 photos in all. So whichever you choose, we weigh it on camera before you pay.
These 74 styles are 41% of all 182 on this site, according to our catalogue data. AgarwoodTown, trading since 2014, ships all 74 agarwood wooden bead bracelets from China, and you pay with PayPal only after you approve the video.
Also, our agarwood is plantation-grown, never wild-harvested. Because CITES Appendix II regulates trade in all Aquilaria species, the export documents for your country are confirmed with your quote.
How do you choose, step by step?
Choosing agarwood wooden bead bracelets is a 4-step decision. First read each step below, then send us your wrist size, and finally judge your own agarwood wooden bead bracelets piece on video. For example, 34 of these 74 styles, or 46%, come in more than one bead size, according to Oudbracelet catalogue data.
Step 1: Start with bead size
On a wooden bead bracelet, 8–10 mm is everyday and understated, 12–14 mm a clear statement, 15 mm and up bold. Size changes the look far more than the fit.
Step 2: Then the cut
A round bead bracelet shows the grain as shifting rings. By contrast, cube and barrel beads show it as flat sections and long lines.
Step 3: Measure your wrist
Use a strip of paper just below the wrist bone. Then we work out the bead count of your wooden bead bracelet from your wrist size and fit.
Step 4: Judge the strand on video
Grain, colour and weight vary from one wooden bead bracelet to the next. So ask for another if the first is not the one.

Questions
What do buyers ask about agarwood wooden bead bracelets?
This FAQ is a set of 9 short answers about agarwood wooden bead bracelets from AgarwoodTown, trading since 2014. Each answer stands on its own. For example, the first one asks “What size wooden bead bracelet should I get?”
What size wooden bead bracelet should I get?
Measure your wrist just below the bone and add about one centimetre for a standard fit. For a 16 cm wrist that is 17 beads of 12 mm or 20 beads of 10 mm. The wrist fitter on each round-bead page draws it to scale for you.
Is a wooden bead bracelet for men or women?
Both. Bead size does more to set the look than anything else: 8–10 mm beads read finer, 14 mm and up read bold. Choose the size you like on your own wrist rather than by gender, and tell us your wrist size so the fit is right.
How are wooden bead bracelets priced?
By weight. First, we pick the piece you will receive, weigh it on camera and send you the video with its exact weight and price. So we charge nothing until you approve it, and you pay by PayPal invoice.
Is the wood wild or cultivated?
Cultivated only. Every strand is plantation agarwood, from Aquilaria trees grown and wounded deliberately so they form resin. We do not sell wild-harvested wood, which CITES Appendix II protects.
Is an oudh, gaharu or agar wood beads bracelet the same thing?
Yes. Oudh, oud, gaharu, kayu gaharu, eaglewood, aloeswood and chen xiang are all names for agarwood. So an oudh bracelet, a gaharu bracelet and a strand of agar wood beads describe the same material. What differs is the resin in each strand, which is why we weigh yours on camera.
Do you sell oud wood chips for burning?
No. We sell oud wood beads to wear, not oud wood chips to burn. Burning oud wood chips on a burner releases their scent in minutes. Beads, by contrast, give it off slowly from a warm wrist for years. For chips in bulk, our parent business AgarwoodTown supplies agarwood wholesale.
What bead sizes do agarwood wooden bead bracelets come in?
On this page, bead sizes run from 5 to 20 mm, across 15 sizes. Generally, smaller beads read finer and weigh less. Larger sizes show the pattern better, though the extra wood adds weight and price. Tell us your wrist and we work out the count.
Can I see real photos of agarwood wooden bead bracelets?
Yes. 21 of the 74 styles here have real photos from our stock, 184 in total. However, those photos show stock strands; the one you buy gets its own video first.
How do I choose between agarwood wooden bead bracelets?
First, pick the bead size you like on your own wrist; here it runs from 5 to 20 mm. Then choose the cut: this page has disc, natural form, cube, round, drum, and the stone: Jadeite, Nanhong Agate, Beeswax Amber, Green Jasper. Once you are down to one or two of these 74 styles, ask for a quote; the video usually decides.
