Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood Guanyin Pendant mean?
Each S079 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 guanyin note, or 1%, including S079. 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 Guanyin Pendant that way. First read the single note on style S079, which covers its main material, shape or motif. Finally, the S079 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.
Guanyin
Guanyin is the bodhisattva of compassion in Chinese Buddhism.
Priced by weight
Why is this piece priced by weight?
Priced by weight means the Agarwood Guanyin Pendant has no fixed tag: the quote comes from the scale reading of the exact piece you would receive.
No two pieces of agarwood weigh the same, because resin varies. So your quote comes from the scale reading of your own piece, filmed before you pay.
According to Tan et al. (2019), agarwood resin forms only after a wound to an Aquilaria tree, so wood from Aquilaria plantations varies, and each Agarwood Guanyin Pendant carries its own amount. In our weight estimates, plantation agarwood runs from 0.60 to 0.95 g/cm³, which lets one S079 piece weigh up to 58% more than another of the same size. First we weigh, then we quote.
In our data, none of the 182 styles on this site has a list price, including S079. For example, you see the S079 reading on video, then pay through PayPal only after you approve the video.
About this piece
What is the Agarwood Guanyin Pendant?
This piece (S079) 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 S079.
One pendant on a cord or chain. So there is nothing to measure, which makes it a safe gift choice.
The pendant is a carved figure of Guanyin.
For example, you can ask for a darker, lighter or more figured S079 before you approve the video. The S079 ships from China, and AgarwoodTown has traded in agarwood since 2014. Since the S079 quote follows the weight, a heavier S079 costs more than a lighter one of the same style.
Finally, S079 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S079, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.
