PRESENCE · CLARITY · RITUAL
Ten thousand thoughts. Zero presence. One piece of wood changes that.
For over 2,000 years — from Zen monasteries in Kyoto to Sufi tekkes in Istanbul to meditation halls across Southeast Asia — agarwood chips burned over charcoal have been the practitioner's tool for creating the conditions for presence. The sesquiterpene compounds in genuine agarwood resin — agarospirol, jinkoh-eremol, guaiol — have documented anxiolytic properties. Modern neuroscience is finally confirming what ancient practitioners knew: the right scent environment changes what your brain can do.

About This Product
Oud Wood Chips — Complete Wholesale Guide
Oud wood — the resin-saturated heartwood of the Aquilaria tree — is among the most valuable natural materials in the world. Also called agarwood, aloeswood or gaharu, oud wood forms when the Aquilaria tree produces a dark, fragrant resin in response to stress or infection. Our plantation Aquilaria sinensis in Dian Bai, Guangdong undergoes controlled artificial inoculation to produce consistent, high-quality resin formation across our managed stock.
We grade all oud wood chips using a rigorous manual inspection process refined over 10+ years of plantation experience. Grading is based on resin density, agarwood colour, chip thickness, and oud wood price per kg is determined accordingly. Our graders can identify the difference between grades by sight, texture and scent — the resulting consistency benefits wholesale buyers who depend on predictable quality for distillation or retail resale.
Oud wood chips have multiple downstream uses: burning directly on charcoal or electric bakhoor burners for oud fragrance; distillation into agarwood essential oil (oud oil); grinding into powder for incense sticks; carving into decorative objects; and display as collector specimens. We can supply the same grade in different forms — chips, splits, or powder — depending on your production requirements.
Our oud wood price is transparent and grade-based. We publish our grade D entry price at $25/g and provide formal quotations for higher grades on request, with pricing adjusted for volume. All oud wood shipments come with CITES Appendix II export permits and phytosanitary certificates, ensuring legal import clearance in the EU, UK, US, Japan, UAE and all other markets.
Tradition & Meaning
Why Oud Wood Chips carries more than scent
In Chinese feng shui, agarwood is the wood that carries Wood, Fire and Earth elements simultaneously — grounding, warming, stabilising — which is why it has been laid at the centre of ancestral altars for eight centuries. Each grade serves a different ritual register: grade D for daily burning, A for seasonal rituals, kynam for once-in-a-generation offerings. You are not just buying chips by the gram; you are buying the base material of every other sacred form on this site.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is oud wood and why is it valuable?
Oud wood is the resin-impregnated heartwood of Aquilaria trees (also called agarwood). The resin forms as a natural defense response and takes years to develop. The resulting wood has an extraordinary complex fragrance used in perfumery, incense and traditional medicine across the Middle East, Japan and South Asia. Its rarity and slow formation make it one of the most expensive natural materials.
What are the differences between agarwood grades?
Grades are based on resin density and visual quality. Grade D has lower resin content — lighter colour, lighter scent. Grade A/AAA has dense black resin patches, strong natural oud fragrance, and highest oil yield. Kynam is ultra-rare with a distinctive cool, sweet scent unlike other grades.
What is the agarwood price per kg?
Agarwood price per kg varies widely by grade. Grade D entry chips start from $25/g ($25,000/kg). Higher grades are significantly more expensive. Volume discounts apply for orders over 500g per grade. Contact us for a formal wholesale price list.
Can I get a sample before ordering?
Yes. We offer paid sample sets of 2–5g per grade so you can evaluate quality, scent and visual appearance before placing a wholesale order. Sample cost is credited toward your first full order.
Do you supply CITES documentation with oud wood?
Yes. All Aquilaria oud wood shipments include a CITES Appendix II export permit (required for international trade) and phytosanitary certificate. We handle the full permit process on our end — buyers just need to ensure their import country clearance is in order.
