Meaning in tradition
What does the Agarwood Plain Round Bead Ring mean?
Each S099 note below is a short reading of one bead shape, stone or motif in Chinese bead custom. In our data, 38 of the 182 styles on this site carry the round bead note, or 21%, including S099. 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 Plain Round Bead Ring that way. First read the single note on style S099, which covers its main material, shape or motif. Finally, the S099 notes deal with Chinese custom only, not with any promised effect.
Round bead · yuán zhū
The most traditional bead shape. Its roundness is read as yuánmǎn, completeness, and it rolls smoothly under the thumb, which is why counting strands use it.
Priced by weight
Why is this ring priced by weight?
Pricing by weight means the quote for the Agarwood Plain Round Bead Ring comes from what your own ring 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 ring, 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 Plain Round Bead Ring carries its own amount. In our weight estimates, plantation agarwood runs from 0.60 to 0.95 g/cm³, which lets one S099 ring 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 S099. For example, you see the S099 reading on video, then pay through PayPal only after you approve the video.
About this piece
What is the Agarwood Plain Round Bead Ring?
This piece (S099) 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 S099.
We size this piece from your ring size, and it is the lightest way to wear agarwood every day. Still, take it off to wash your hands with soap.
Round beads are lathe-turned and hand-sanded. On a sphere the grain never shows the same face twice, so every bead on the strand looks a little different.
Its beads measure 4 mm.
For example, you can ask for a darker, lighter or more figured S099 before you approve the video.
Finally, S099 uses wood from Aquilaria trees grown on plantations. According to CITES, the whole Aquilaria genus, the source of S099, has sat in Appendix II since 2004.
