Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood & Jadeite Disc Bead Necklace mean?
Each S121 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 S121. 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 & Jadeite Disc Bead Necklace that way. First read the 2 notes on style S121, one for each material or motif in the piece. Finally, the S121 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.
Disc bead · piàn zhū
Flat slices of wood, stacked so closely that the strand reads as a band. Every slice carries its own cut through the grain.
Jadeite · fěicuì
The glassier of the two jades, valued for bright greens and clear blue-water tones. Set among brown wood, it is the boldest accent we make.
Priced by weight
Why is this piece priced by weight?
Pricing by weight means the quote for the Agarwood & Jadeite Disc Bead Necklace comes from what your own piece weighs on the scale, filmed before you pay.
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.
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 & Jadeite Disc Bead 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 S121 pieces of one size. Finally, the scale settles the S121 quote.
In our data, none of the 182 styles on this site has a list price, including S121. For example, you see the S121 reading on video, then pay through PayPal only after you approve the video.

Each disc is a slim cross-section of the wood. Stacked tightly, they form a smooth band, and the edge of every disc carries its own line of grain.
The agarwood pairs with Jadeite. Expect the stones on your S121 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, S121 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S121, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.
