How an Agarwood Bead is Born

Each ZIXIU agarwood bead begins with sustainably cultivated Qinan agarwood trees, grown for over seven years.

When the tree is naturally wounded, it secretes resin to heal — forming the fragrant heartwood known as agarwood. This process takes time, patience, and care.
Artisans then remove the pale outer layers to reveal the rich, dark core. Only a small fraction of each tree can be transformed into jewelry-grade material. Each bead is cut, soaked, and hand-polished through multiple stages — from rough shaping to a fine, oil-rich glow.
Every step reflects craftsmanship and respect for nature. No two beads are ever the same — each one tells its own quiet story of growth, healing, and transformation.
Handcrafted and paired with natural stones, ZIXIU jewelry carries the essence of the forest in a modern form — timeless, balanced, and deeply personal.
