The most fragrant wood on earth. Yours to shape.
Before plantation cultivation, working with genuine agarwood was reserved for a handful of master carvers in Guangdong, Kyoto, and Riyadh. The material cost made experimentation impossible. Plantation-grade Aquilaria sinensis has changed that. Grade B slabs that wholesale at $8–25/piece have the same chemistry, the same tool response, and the same aromatic transformation under heat as material that cost 100× more a decade ago. The barrier that kept this material out of craftspeople's hands is gone.
- ✓Grade B carving slabs $8–25/piece — Grade A logs $25–150/piece FOB Guangdong
- ✓Fragrance released by cutting, sanding, and finishing — each machining stage reveals new scent layers
- ✓CITES documentation standard — legally importable in all major markets without restriction
- ✓Consistent grain and density from certified plantation — no structural surprises mid-carve
The right buyer
Who works with agarwood logs:
The master carver
Needing consistent-density material for Guanyin figures, Pixiu animals, calligraphy plaques.
The woodworking artist
Exploring agarwood as a material for sculptural, decorative, or functional objects. Boxes, knife handles, decorative bowls.
The incense maker
Slabs and offcuts for hand-broken chip production, or machined into coil and cone shapes. The most economical feedstock for boutique incense production.
The collector buyer
Acquiring documented plantation logs as alternative assets. Grade A and AAA specimens with strong resin coverage appreciate alongside the processed.
Applications
What you can make
Sculpture and carving
Guanyin, Pixiu, dragons, Arabic calligraphy. Each carving pass releases fragrance and reveals resin patterning.
Bead and bracelet production
Logs turned on a lathe into beads — the most efficient route from raw material to wholesale bracelet stock.
Incense chip and cone production
Slabs fractured by hand into irregular chips for bakhoor base material, or precision-machined into cone and coil forms for incense production lines.
Display and decor objects
Natural-form display pieces — a cross-section slice showing resin patterning, a spalted log section for gallery display. The material itself is the art.

What carvers say
“Grade A plantation logs from AgarwoodTown have replaced wild material in my production entirely. Consistent grain, reliable resin distribution, CITES sorted. My collectors can't tell the difference in the finished pieces.”
Master carver
Guangdong
“I bought 5kg of Grade B slabs for experimental work. The fragrance released by the belt sander was extraordinary — my workshop smelled incredible for two weeks. I'm now ordering 50kg monthly.”
Studio woodworker
California
“For our boutique incense range we hand-break AgarwoodTown Grade A logs into rough chips. The resin coverage is consistent enough that batch-to-batch fragrance variation is minimal. That's professional material.”
