Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X mean?
Each S108 note below is a short reading of one bead shape, stone or motif in Chinese bead custom. In our data, 24 of the 182 styles on this site carry the square bead note, or 13%, including S108. 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 Cube Bead Bracelet X that way. First read the single note on style S108, which covers its main material, shape or motif. Finally, the S108 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.
Square bead · fāng zhū
Square-cut beads show the grain on flat faces. Tradition also links the square with fāngzhèng: being upright and straightforward.
Priced by weight
Why is this strand priced by weight?
Priced by weight means the Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X has no fixed tag: the quote comes from the scale reading of the exact strand you would receive.
For example, two Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X strands of 20 beads at 10 mm can weigh from about 5.9 to 9.4 g. Resin accounts for the 3.4 g difference, which is why one printed price would be wrong for most strands.
Similarly, across the 2 sizes of Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X, the estimate runs from about 3.5 g at 8 mm to 9.4 g at 10 mm. Therefore, for Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X, your choice of size moves the price more than anything else.
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 Cube Bead Bracelet X shows the result. Our estimates span 0.60 to 0.95 g/cm³ for plantation wood, a spread of up to 58% between two S108 strands of one size. Finally, the scale settles the S108 quote.
In our data, none of the 182 styles on this site has a list price, including S108.

About this piece
What is the Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X?
Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X (S108) 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 S108.
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.
Cube beads are sawn square and eased at the edges. Their flat faces show resin lines without distortion, so this cut suits anyone who wants to see the wood clearly.
In numbers, for example: at 10 mm, the middle of this style’s range, a 16 cm wrist takes 20 beads, with 16.9 cm inside. So the strand should weigh around 5.9–9.4 g. Across its 2 single-strand sizes, from 8 to 10 mm, the bead count therefore runs from 20 to 24. Style code S108, shown in a studio image.
Overall, it comes in 5 bead sizes, from 5 to 10 mm. At 5 mm the strand looks fine and light; at 10 mm each bead shows more grain and costs more. Our bead size chart shows each size drawn on a wrist.
Finally, S108 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S108, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.

About Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X
Each S108 answer below is a short reply to one question about the Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X. For example, the S108 answers come from AgarwoodTown, an agarwood business trading since 2014. 48 of the 182 styles here, or 26%, show real photos, according to our data, and S108 has a studio image instead.
What bead sizes does Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X come in?
5 sizes: 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 mm. Below 8 mm, we string the beads as multi-wrap strands rather than a single turn. So on a 16 cm wrist that means 24 beads at 8 mm and 20 beads at 10 mm.
How much does Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X weigh?
That depends on the bead size and the wood. For example, at 10 mm on a 16 cm wrist, expect roughly 5.9–9.4 g; at 10 mm, roughly 5.9–9.4 g. These are estimates from bead volume. However, your quote uses the weight we read off the scale for your own strand.
What wrist sizes does Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X fit?
Any, because we set the bead count from your wrist. For instance, at 10 mm with about 1 cm of room: 18 beads for 14 cm, 19 beads for 15 cm, 20 beads for 16 cm, 21 beads for 17 cm, 22 beads for 18 cm. Try your own wrist in the fitter above to see the result drawn to scale.
What is Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X made of?
Plantation agarwood, in cube beads. We cut S108 from cultivated Aquilaria trees, where resin forms in streaks, so its brown shade varies.
How many strands of this style can I choose from?
10: R15, R16, R17, R18, R19, R20, R21, R22, S004 and S108. Same cut, same materials, different wood: grain and weight vary between them. Name the one you like, or leave the choice to us.
Is the picture of Agarwood Cube Bead Bracelet X a photo of my piece?
No. We photographed S108 once in the studio; we weigh and film your own strand separately.
