Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III mean?
Each S105 note below is a short reading of one bead shape, stone or motif in Chinese bead custom. In our data, 18 of the 182 styles on this site carry the disc bead note, or 10%, including S105. 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 Disc Bead Bracelet III that way. First read the single note on style S105, which covers its main material, shape or motif. Finally, the S105 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.

Thin discs stacked edge to edge. We cut each disc across the grain, so the strand shows a slice of the wood’s pattern in every bead.
Priced by weight
Why is this strand priced by weight?
Priced by weight means the Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III has no fixed tag: the quote comes from the scale reading of the exact strand you would receive.
For example, two Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III strands of 20 beads at 10 mm can weigh from about 5.9 to 9.4 g. The 3.4 g gap is resin: denser wood holds more of it. A single fixed price could not reflect that.
Similarly, across the 3 sizes of Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III, the estimate runs from about 3.5 g at 8 mm to 14 g at 12 mm. Therefore, for Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III, your choice of size moves the price more than anything else.
As Tan et al. (2019) explain, an Aquilaria tree forms resin only after a wound, and never evenly, which is why no two Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III pieces match. For estimates we use 0.60 to 0.95 g/cm³, so two S105 strands can differ by up to 58% in weight. First the scale, then the price.
In our data, none of the 182 styles on this site has a list price, including S105.

About this piece
What is the Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III?
Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III (S105) 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 S105.
One turn round the wrist, strung to your measurement. First you tell us your wrist size and how snug you like it; then we choose the bead count. As a result, no two orders of this style have to be the same length.
Disc beads are thin slices of wood, cut across the grain and stacked edge to edge. So the strand reads as one continuous band, with a line of pattern in every disc.
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 3 single-strand sizes, from 8 to 12 mm, the bead count therefore runs from 17 to 24. Style code S105, shown in a studio image.
Overall, it comes in 4 bead sizes, from 6 to 12 mm. Generally, smaller beads read finer and stack well. Larger beads, however, show more grain per bead and weigh more, so they cost more. Our bead size chart shows each size drawn on a wrist.
Finally, S105 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S105, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.

About Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III
Each S105 answer below is a short reply to one question about the Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III. For example, the S105 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 S105 has a studio image instead.
What bead sizes does Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III come in?
4 sizes: 6, 8, 10, 12 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, 20 beads at 10 mm and 17 beads at 12 mm.
How much does Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III 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 12 mm, roughly 8.8–14 g. We estimate these from bead volume; the quote itself uses the scale reading for your strand.
What wrist sizes does Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III 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. So put your wrist size into the fitter above to see it drawn to scale.
What is Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III made of?
Plantation agarwood, in disc beads. For S105 we use cultivated Aquilaria only, and uneven resin makes the brown colour vary slightly.
How many strands of this style can I choose from?
4: R38, S002, S105 and S106. They share the cut and materials, but they are different pieces of wood, so grain and weight differ. So ask for a particular one, or let us choose.
Is the picture of Agarwood Disc Bead Bracelet III a photo of my piece?
It is a studio image of S105, so before you pay we send a video of your exact strand.
