Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood Bamboo-Node Bracelet mean?
Each S012 note below is a short reading of one bead shape, stone or motif in Chinese bead custom. In our data, 1 of the 182 styles on this site carry the bamboo-node bead note, or 1%, including S012. For example, a bead name may sound like a wish, and a carved form may recall a virtue, so read each note on the Agarwood Bamboo-Node Bracelet that way. First read the single note on style S012, which covers its main material, shape or motif. Finally, the S012 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.

Priced by weight
Why is this strand priced by weight?
Pricing by weight means the quote for the Agarwood Bamboo-Node Bracelet comes from what your own strand weighs on the scale, filmed before you pay.
Two S012 pieces may look alike yet weigh differently, since resin is dense and uneven, so we weigh yours on camera.
Research on agarwood induction (Tan et al., 2019) describes resin in wood from Aquilaria trees that forms only after injury, in uneven amounts, and every Agarwood Bamboo-Node Bracelet shows the result. Our estimates span 0.60 to 0.95 g/cm³ for plantation wood, a spread of up to 58% between two S012 strands of one size. Finally, the scale settles the S012 quote.
In our data, none of the 182 styles on this site has a list price, including S012. For example, you see the S012 reading on video, then pay through PayPal only after you approve the video.
About this piece
What is the Agarwood Bamboo-Node Bracelet?
Agarwood Bamboo-Node Bracelet (S012) is mid to dark brown plantation agarwood. According to our data, 150 of the 182 styles on this site use mid to dark brown wood, or 82%, including S012.
A single strand for the wrist. Because we count the beads to your own measurement, the fit follows you rather than a standard size. It is also slim enough to wear with a watch or a second strand.
We carve each bead with raised rings, like the joints on a bamboo stem. So the pattern stays visible even where the grain is quiet, and the ridges give your fingers something to trace.
For example, you can ask for a darker, lighter or more figured S012 before you approve the video.
Finally, S012 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S012, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.
