Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood & Hetian Jade Plain Plaque Necklace mean?
Each S086 note below is a short reading of one bead shape, stone or motif in Chinese bead custom. In our data, 27 of the 182 styles on this site carry the hetian jade note, or 15%, including S086. 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 & Hetian Jade Plain Plaque Necklace that way. Finally, the S086 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.
Hetian jade · Hétián yù
A nephrite jade with a soft, oily lustre — white, green or lotus-pink. Carvers in China have worked it for thousands of years, and it pairs quietly with brown wood.
Plain Plaque
Carvers leave a plain plaque, the wú shì pái or “nothing-happens tablet”, uncarved. Traditionally, it is a wish for an uneventful, trouble-free life.
Priced by weight
Why is this piece priced by weight?
Pricing by weight means the quote for the Agarwood & Hetian Jade Plain Plaque Necklace comes from what your own piece weighs on the scale, filmed before you pay.
A price list would treat every S086 alike, but resin makes some heavier, so a filmed scale reading sets your quote.
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 & Hetian Jade Plain Plaque Necklace shows the result. Our estimates span 0.60 to 0.95 g/cm³ for plantation wood, a spread of up to 58% between two S086 pieces of one size. Finally, the scale settles the S086 quote.
In our data, none of the 182 styles on this site has a list price, including S086. For example, you see the S086 reading on video, then pay through PayPal only after you approve the video.

Worn at the neck. First choose how long you want it; then we confirm the cord or clasp in the quote, before you pay.
The centre is a smooth, uncarved plaque — the “nothing-happens tablet”, left plain on purpose. We string it on braided cord, which shows between the beads.
The agarwood pairs with Hetian Jade. Expect the stones on your S086 to sit roughly where the picture shows them, since we add each by hand. You check the real layout in the video first. See how we pair agarwood with jade, agate and amber.
Finally, S086 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S086, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.
