Agarwood bracelets, the things you must know before you buy .

Agarwood, aloeswood, eaglewood or gharuwood is a fragrant dark resinous wood used in incense, perfume, and small carvings. It is formed in the heartwood of aquilaria trees when they become infected with a type of mold (Phialophora parasitica). Prior to infection, the heartwood is odourless, relatively light and pale coloured; however, as the infection progresses, the tree produces a dark aromatic resin, called aloes (not to be confused with Aloe ferox, the succulent commonly known as the bitter aloe) or agar (not to be confused with the edible, algae-derived agar) as well as gaharu, jinko, oud, or oodh aguru (not to be confused with bukhoor), in response to the attack, which results in a very dense, dark, resin-embedded heartwood. The resin-embedded wood is valued in Indian-North Eastern culture for its distinctive fragrance, and thus is used for incense and perfumes. Its name is believed to have first and foremost Sanskrit origin, formed from ‘Aguru’. The aromatic qualities of agarwood are influenced by the species, geographic location, its branch, trunk and root origin, length of time since infection, and methods of harvesting and processing.

 

Choosing for yourself a suitable Agarwood ring to always carry with you is an important and costly mind of the buyer. Honestly, it also takes a lot of mind from sellers like me.

For customers to understand and trust whether the source of the bass they provide is TRUE PRODUCT or not is very difficult because the information on the internet is one at a time, the editors do not have knowledge of bass or understanding yet. next. Invisible information that confuses customers and makes customers even more difficult to understand.

Another difficulty is that the boundary between the price and quality of Agarwood is very wide, it is difficult to have a specific measurement standard, so it is more difficult to choose the quality of the incense ring compared to the value of the ring.

Another thing is that the sale of incense rings is not in accordance with the quality as well as the price is increasing, because of the profit They lose all their mind and love for the job ...

This article will be quite long and will continuously update your knowledge about the incense ring, looking forward to receiving, commenting and sharing from you.

Natural Agarwood: is Agarwood produced in nature by natural agents without any human intervention (to put it that way, but there are a few deposits formed by war bombs. from humans.)

Artificial Agarwood: is agarwood planted to create agarwood, oil-cooking Agarwood  (also known as oil pressed), grafted agarwood, indonesia technology.

Nowadays, agarwood formation technique is more and more advanced and the age of planted agarwood trees is getting higher and higher, so the quality of agarwood produced by this artificial method is also very good, really not inferior to natural tock. .

 

Natural agarwood
The wood grain displayed on the grain is very clear, the oil rays are uniformly spaced, the aroma of the ring is strong or light depending on the region, the quality of the bass and the density of the deep holes.

Often the agarwood blocks form slowly in nature over a long time, more and more oils will make the incense smell good.

There are newly made natural agarwood rings that really smell very strong, because the amount of musk it emits is large, but after a while the tiny holes of the frankincense are blocked, so the smell will be reduced, and only Just fragrant.

 

Types of Agarwood bracelets.
Satisfying interests and aesthetics, many types of bass rings were born:

Round grain bass
Burning bamboo ring.
Gold-coated bass ring.
108-grain bass ring.
Natural bass ring.
Lullaby round.
Oval bass ring.
Bass ring, button, wheel ...
And those types are also mixed with more stone and gold accessories for a more beautiful look. Those are the names that I know.

For rings that require a lot of embryos to be made, the value of the ring is more expensive than natural rings because first is that it consumes a lot of material, second is that it is rare.

Natural deep bracelets made from different materials also have their own specialized names. These names let us distinguish and visualize the oil quality, wood density, pattern and aroma of the ring.

However, you only need to care about the aroma, the amount of oil in the wood or not, and the wood is enough because those names also indicate the above characteristics.

If owning a natural frankincense bracelet submerged in water, it is too Vip, but it is more difficult to own the submerged incense bracelet. Especially the frankincense rings need sophisticated machining and consume a lot of raw materials.

What is depression?
Agarwood is agarwood removed from the stem of a live tree, where the plant's nutrients are still feeding the wood cells infected with the agarwood.

Agarwood can be tock, deep bass, or deep depression depending on the oil pollution in the wood grain.

What is brooding?
Silence is being eroded and modified by environmental factors such as soil, water, temperature and humidity, at which point the wood molecules are dead and are no longer nourished by the plant. Over time it will deeply corrode into the layers of agar denaturing and give the agar a very special sweet aroma.

Frankincense

Agarwood blocks, weathered wood outside, soft, spongy and easy to crumble.

Agarwood is usually exploited in trees that have died for a long time, after pulling the disease and creating agarwood if the tree is unable to grow anymore, it will die. Therefore, finding a dead tree is more likely to hit bass and period is very high.

Agarwood is dead

Agarwood trees die and decay over the years.

I have been tested through 2 types of agglomeration that are yellow and red ribbons of Vietnam. Agarwood has a very sweet and pleasant fragrance, that is why it is the treasure that the pilgrims seek.

Most of it is small pieces of wood, after weathering, the layers of wood that are not contaminated with oil will be eroded, followed by the oil-contaminated wood layers, which are weathered for a longer time, a process that creates depression. good.

Most of the agarwood used to make incense is because they are fragile and fragile. For pieces of agarwood that are more oily will be stiffer and can make frankincense bracelets.

So you will see natural frankincense rings sold on the market and if to make a ring with round seeds that are large, it is not possible at this time 2021.

Low speed ring.
Bass is also known as tock, which is the wood that is oiled into rays that run along the wood grain. The density of these oil rays is far apart because it has not broken oil into the remaining fiber. Therefore, you will see white and black fibers running along, this is also the first called stage in the process of forming frankincense on the tree. In order to reach a submerged mass, there must be many stages in that submerged area and tock is considered the first stage.

The tock billet is machined into a low speed ring usually has a light weight and the sparse wood grain does not look sturdy.

Low speed ball speed.
The ball speed is considered the next stage of the tock, the oil sparks and the level of oil contamination increase, contaminating the remaining fibers, the density of the oil and the oil resin here is also higher, along with the honey. the wood rays are tighter.

The oil rays are also thinner and the density of the oil rays is thicker.

In the bass ball you often hear young balls and old balls called to talk about the level of oil contamination in this stage 2.

Depending on the oil, the color of the oil along with the oil contamination, the aroma that we can divide into is deep red, blue balls, cotton balls, purple balls ... there are too many terms that make players want to learn. get tangled.

Therefore, you should not learn this issue carefully, because these terms are very vague, it is difficult for people with seniority in the profession to have a suitable and satisfactory explanation for others to understand. It's kind of like an experience, an eye ...

The ball speed ring has a good aroma with the hand grip and the tight wood, especially the red ball that has a lot of oil and red will give you an experience of the smell that must be called the ultimate.

Want to choose a good frankincense bracelet just meets the criteria:
Good aroma: Always the same priority is still the smell because the value of frankincense lies there.
The amount of oil: The more the oil, the longer the ring will be in the hand, the longer the fragrance will last, and too much oil will sink in water.
Beautiful patterns: Patterns create decorative beauty for agarwood seeds, but depending on your preference, the more beautiful the pattern, the higher the price of the incense ring will be.

Hopefully with the above information will help your way to understand more about Vietnamese agarwood .
